Lighthouse Title Group Partners With ALTA & United Way to Support Hurricane Relief

Lighthouse Title Group has a deeply rooted mission statement: “To lead, to engage, and to protect.” While these words typically apply to the title insurance world, in light of recent events, Lighthouse Title Group—in conjunction with the American Land Title Association (ALTA)—is honored to donate $16,000 towards Hurricane Helene and Milton relief efforts. This contribution will aid in providing essential resources and assistance to communities in North Carolina and Florida affected by the recent hurricanes.

The donations will be directed towards ALTA’s Good Deeds Foundation, which offers a generous donation match, and The United Way of Haywood County, which is working on the ground to deliver immediate relief such as food, water, and emergency supplies, as well as long-term recovery efforts.

Introducing Louie the Lightkeeper

Ahoy!

I am Louie the Lightkeeper. I had been a lighthouse keeper for 40 years at various houses on the Great Lakes, but recently decided to retire from the business. I am still searching, just no longer for boats and vessels!

You see, I now help the Lighthouse Title Group family and their customers search for answers and protect them from the rocky “title” waves.

I am known for finding things quickly and accurately, since missing a boat coming into the harbor was never an option. In my past profession, the beacons of my majestic houses would alert sailors of the dangerous rocks and shores to ensure safe travels to the destination, whereas I now aid clients in the timely delivery of their title product.

Moving lighthouse to lighthouse could be a shipwreck without experienced title professionals; however, with all the changing waves and tides that the markets may bring, I know one thing is certain: Lighthouse Title is where your Title Insurance needs can rest ashore!

How I Can Help

You may be wondering ‘how can I (Louie) help you’! You can text me 24/7 with any questions or updates on an order and even closing cost estimates. Below are my specialties:

  • On-Demand File Access
  • Document Sharing
  • Create orders
  • File Status
  • File Updates
  • General Questions

Here are some examples of searches I do everyday!

I am very excited to assist you! Please let me know what I can help you with. Remember, you can text me anytime or message me on Lighthouse Title’s website. No app, no needed passwords, no hassle. Just text or message Louie any questions you have at anytime, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Be sure to look for my selfie on our website to chat with me!


In Summary

We have a new virtual closing assistant available Louie is here to keep you informed and up-to-date. You can text him 24/7 for updates or questions.
