The American Land Title Association (ALTA) has released a video that showcases its members work behind the scenes to make homeownership possible.
“There is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic has completely changed the meaning of what we have come to know as ‘home,’” ALTA CEO Diane Tomb said in a release. “In the wake of the pandemic, ‘home’ has now become an office, a school to our children and the heartbeat of a family’s sense of security. We are proud of our members for stepping up during these challenging times.”
ALTA said the video focuses on the many titles an ALTA member may take on when advocating for a homebuyer.
“ALTA members, as title professionals, are the guardians of the American dream,” Tomb said. “We wanted to introduce the country to the people who are dedicated to making sure that families can still open the door to their dream of owning a home.”
“Despite work from home and social distancing recommendations, land title professionals have been innovating and providing both ‘drive-thru’ and digital closings in order to ensure families can continue to close on a new home or take advantage of low interest rates and refinance their mortgages,” Tomb said.
