First American Title Expands Free Property Monitoring Service
First American Title Insurance Company has expanded its no-cost property title monitoring service to clients of its independent agent network. The tool, previously available through the company's Direct Division since January 2026, now offers fraud detection for homeowners with residential owner’s policies underwritten by First American. It monitors new filings such as deeds and liens that may indicate fraudulent activity. The expansion aims to enhance protection against rising real estate fraud threats, particularly in light of record cybercrime losses reported at $20.9 billion in 2025. The service is integrated with title insurance policies rather than being a standalone product. Homeowners can opt for additional coverage through specific endorsements if desired. Eligibility requires a valid First American Title owner’s policy, residential or new-home construction status, and an active street address. Commercial properties, vacant land without addresses, and loan/lender's policies are excluded.
