In many regards, 2011 looked like a year that title insurance business turned a corner, with profits up and claims down, but those we spoke to for the 2012 Title Insurance Financial Report didn’t refer to the positive numbers as a turned corner. They think it looks more like bottom has been reached. Take a look for yourself. Do you think that’s the case?
