OUR CLIENTS
Midsized and large institutional, industrial, commercial and multifamily real estate developers, as well as telecommunications and energy companies.
OUR ADVANTAGE
Backed by the strength of our underwriters and our experience in closing projects of up to $1 billion, U.S. Title Solutions has the ability to handle the toughest of challenges that a commercial real estate transaction can present. We consider ourselves stakeholders in the projects we undertake. We are known for thinking “outside the box” and are committed to finding solutions that keep the deal on track and minimize unnecessary costs. We do not chase volume, but rather we seek projects from well-established real estate investors and developers who can appreciate our level of expertise and service. Our goal is not to get one deal out the door in order to finish the next one. Our goal is direct attention, careful execution and results. We know that title insurance is not the most pressing issue in any transaction. Our mission is to prevent it from becoming an obstacle to a project’s completion.
ON THE HORIZON
We expect there may be some belt-tightening in all sectors due to supply issues and economic uncertainties. Industrial and multifamily will remain very strong. We are seeing accelerated development of health care-related projects as systems merge, the population ages and the focus on specialized care broadens. Scientific research and education facilities development, both ground-up and as a result of repurposing, will gain traction. Our telecommunications and energy clients will surely be more active as accommodations for electric cars and wind energy increase in demand. And don’t forget the movie studios in Newark and Bayonne.
CREATIVE SOLUTIONS
As an agency that specializes in complex commercial transactions, the variety of challenges that require creative solutions is endless. Vice President of Operations and Client Services Erin Fagan and her team actively advocate for our clients when we run into underwriter roadblocks. “When obstacles appear Erin draws on her deep knowledge and understanding of title issues to engage the underwriter in a dialogue,” says Sales Executive Monica Casiello. “It is because of her that we have such strong working relationships with our underwriters. She has her finger on the pulse of every fi le and is widely respected for her acumen.” We do our homework. Most importantly, we communicate. U.S. Title Solutions recognizes that each closing is unique and works hard to provide the best solutions to both our client and the underwriter to ensure the transaction closes to everyone’s satisfaction.
TRANSACTION SPOTLIGHT
We provided title and settlement services for the RCINJ Jack and Sheryl Morris Cancer Center in New Brunswick. This multifaceted development is a partnership among RWJBarnabas Health, Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, Middlesex County and Devco. It will bring New Brunswick the state’s first freestanding cancer hospital, a central utility plant and a public parking structure that will handle underground loading access. The $700 million project was awarded the Transformation Award by NAIOP NJ at its 2022 Gala. This award was created specifically to acknowledge the project’s significance.
