Regional Update with Brian Phillips | Growing Out West

Summer is well under way in the Rocky Mountains, and the shops and restaurants have been buzzing with excited tourists returning to some sense of normal life! Just like the rest of the country we have seen a slow down in Refi volume, low inventory driving higher prices and a bustling purchase market, and a return of a lot more commercial transactions. In particular, there has been a flurry of transactions involving hotels and light industrial/warehouse space.  Our underwriting staff has been busy helping our agents navigate these transactions. 

Here at FNTI we are starting to travel and see our agents and clients more. Our western region team, along with Chris Phillips and George Stablein had a chance to attend the Utah Land Title Conference in Park City in early July. It was a beautiful venue and very successful event that was full of useful information and updates to regulations and practices. We will also be attending conferences in New Mexico, Colorado, and Arizona in the next few months.

In just a few short months FNTI has added operations in Colorado, Utah, and Nevada with plans to continue growing in the Rocky Mountain Region. We have also added Mid-Atlantic and Great Lakes regions. Throughout this growth we have maintained our core values and continue to do business with people we know, like and trust!
