Our Pledge of Safety, Certainty, Confidence

The dictionary defines "assurance" as a pledge, guarantee, security, certainty, or confidence. And our pledge to each customer is that we'll take good care of you. We're a strong company that you can rely on because we have a highly qualified staff.

Assurance Title Services, Inc. opened in August 1984 with Barbara Schlieve serving as general manager. Two years later, Barb purchased the company and made a commitment to becoming a leader in the industry.

From the start, Assurance Title focused on professionalism and delivering quality service. We also wanted to expand our offerings to include more parts of the closing process. By making real-estate transactions easier for our customers, we set a new standard for delivering exceptional customer service.

You can trust our dedicated team of title experts to get the job done right. As a full-service title company, our process starts with in-depth research at the courthouse. We then go on to provide an array of title services such as title insurance, letter reports, closing and escrow services, as well as construction escrow services.

We realize the key to success in any business is repeat business. That's why we treat our customers the way we'd want to be treated - with efficiency, accuracy, competitive pricing, and a smile!
