Built for Tennessee title

A processing partner that knows how Tennessee closes.

Most outsourced title processing is built for every state at once and often delivered offshore. We focus on one. That means fewer explanations, fewer corrections, and files that look the way your underwriter expects.

  • 95 counties, 95 Register of Deeds officesRecording requirements, e-recording availability and county quirks, tracked file by file.
  • Tennessee transfer and mortgage taxesRecordation taxes figured into the settlement statement before it goes to the lender.
  • Oath of consideration and local requirementsThe details Tennessee deeds and packages need, caught during prep instead of at the recorder's counter.
  • Works alongside your attorneyAnything that calls for legal judgment goes to your attorney or examiner. We prepare; you decide.

Pre-closing

Title search & exam coordination

Searches ordered and tracked with your abstractors and examiners until the exam is back.

Pre-closing

Commitment prep

Commitments typed from the exam, with requirements listed and ready for your review and sign-off.

Pre-closing

Payoffs, HOA, liens & tax certs

Payoff letters, HOA and estoppel requests, municipal lien searches and tax certificates, requested and chased down.

Pre-closing

CPLs & closing protection

Closing protection letters issued through your underwriter and sent to the lender on time.

Pre-closing

Survey & inspection coordination

Surveys, inspections and other third-party items the file depends on, ordered and followed up.

Closing

Lender & agent communication

Status updates, conditions and document requests handled, so the questions stop landing on your closer.

Closing

Settlement statement & CD balancing

Preliminary and final figures prepared and balanced against the lender's Closing Disclosure before closing day.

Closing

Closing scheduling & doc prep

Closings scheduled with every party, and the closing package prepared and ready to sign.

Post-closing

Post-closing: recording, policies & trailing docs

Documents recorded with the right Register of Deeds, final owner's and lender's policies issued, mortgage releases tracked and trailing documents delivered, so nothing sits open after closing.

Our story

Title work runs in the family.

TN Title Services is built on the Agee family's title business in Memphis: Mid-America Title Agency, Inc., a family-owned title and closing agency in Cordova, Tennessee.

Mid-America Title has described itself as providing title and closing services in the Mid-South since 1972. The work was the everyday work of a title office: real estate closings, title searches and abstracts, and keeping every file moving to the closing table.

TN Title Services takes that background and offers it to other offices. We're the back-office processing team for Tennessee title agencies and real estate attorneys, operated by Agee Ventures, LLC.

My family ran a title business in the Memphis area, and I worked in it for years. One thing stuck with me: most of a closing happens long before anyone sits down at the table. It's the searches, the payoffs, the figures, and the follow-up calls.

That's the work we take on, so your team can spend its time with clients and at the closing table. When you send us a file, we treat it the way a family business treats its own: carefully, and with your name on it.

Checklists, templates and hand-offs written around your process and standards.

Why TN Title Services

Capacity that flexes with the market, not your payroll.

Closings swing with rates and seasons. Hiring for the peak leaves you overstaffed in the slow months. We give you the capacity without the fixed cost.

Faster closings

Files move every day, not just when your team finds a free hour.

  • Requests go out as soon as the file opens
  • Follow-ups tracked through to closing

Scalable capacity

Take on more files in a busy month without recruiting, training or overtime.

  • Overflow-only or full-file support
  • Per-file pricing, no long-term contracts

Tennessee-specific know-how

One state learned in depth, instead of fifty learned at the surface.

  • County recording requirements
  • Transfer and mortgage tax on every statement

Secure process

Designed around protecting your clients' data and your escrow funds.

  • Work stays inside your systems and access controls
  • You keep control of wires and disbursements
Security & confidentiality

Your clients' information stays protected.

Title files hold Social Security numbers, loan details and bank information. We handle every file with that in mind.

NPI handled with care

Nonpublic personal information is used only to work your files, seen only by the people working them, and never sold or shared.

Encrypted file exchange

Documents move through your own systems or an encrypted file-sharing channel, not as open email attachments.

NDA available

We're glad to sign your NDA or confidentiality agreement before we see a single file.

Aligned with ALTA Best Practices

Our process is designed to align with the ALTA Title Insurance and Settlement Company Best Practices, to support your own compliance program.

You control the money

Escrow accounts, wires and disbursements stay with you. We never hold or move funds.

Inside your systems

Where possible, we work in your production software and shared drives, under your access controls.

TN Title Services is not ALTA Best Practices certified or assessed. We describe our process as aligned with those practices, and we're happy to walk through how it supports yours.

FAQ

Questions title teams ask us.

Don't see yours? Book a call and we'll walk through it.

Everything between a signed contract and a recorded deed: intake, search and exam coordination, commitment prep, payoff and lien requests, tax certs, CPLs, lender and agent communication, settlement statement prep, closing scheduling, doc prep, and post-closing recording, policies and trailing docs.

Yes. You can start with one stage, like post-closing or payoff and HOA requests, or send only overflow files during busy months, then add more as you get comfortable.

That's the goal. We'd rather work inside the production system and shared drives you already use than ask you to change tools. We'll confirm the setup for your software on the discovery call.

You do. We prepare and coordinate; your agents, examiners and attorneys review, approve and close. Escrow funds, wires and disbursements stay under your control.

Per file, based on the stages you hand off and the type of transaction. There are no long-term contracts. Share your monthly volume in the form below and we'll send pricing.

Yes. Focusing on one state means knowing its counties, taxes and recording rules well. That's the whole point.
