Counsellors Title Agency, Inc. added John DeSantis Jr. to its agency’s sales and marketing team of licensed title producers as regional account manager. He brings a broad and distinguished knowledge of the title insurance industry, representing over a quarter century of professional title experience.
According to an announcement released by Counsellors Title, DeSantis has a life-long knowledge of the title-search business which began as part of his family’s business. He recalls accompanying his mother, a title searcher, to the Hall of Records as a young child. His “title education” was broadened further by his uncle, who also was a title searcher, and who had him coloring his many layered deeds and plotting before he was 10 years old.
Prior to joining Counsellors Title Agency, DeSantis was president of Meridian Title Agency, which he founded in 1989.
He is a guest lecturer at Brookdale Community College and for Academy of Continuing Education for the professions and the New Jersey Legal Training Academy. He is also a member of the Central Jersey Business Exchange.
“I am excited to start a new challenge with Counsellors Title and look forward to working with the dynamic team Ralph Aponte has put together over the course of two decades which has distinguished itself as a leader within the industry,” DeSantis said.
“John’s extraordinary wealth of experience and industry knowledge has already made him a key addition to the Counsellors Title organization,” Counsellors Title Agency President and founder Ralph Aponte said. “We are enthusiastic about his ability to make a great contribution to our growth as one of New Jersey’s leading title insurance and settlement businesses.”
