First Liberty Title has opened its doors at 109 E US 90 in Dayton inside First Liberty Bank’s Dayton Financial Center. First Liberty Title launched with an objective to provide superior service and title insurance for all property transactions.
Operating under the umbrella of First Liberty Bank, the title company seeks to serve its clients with facilitating secure property transactions, eliminating risks and safeguarding customers against title disputes.
The new company further establishes First Liberty Bank‘s profile in Liberty County and the surrounding area. The bank currently has its headquarters in Liberty and branches in Hardin, Huffman, Dayton, China, Livingston and Mont Belvieu, and soon will have a branch in Colony Ridge.
According to FLB President Kelly Stretcher, the new title service, in combination with the bank’s established mortgage service and a comprehensive range of insurance products, makes First Liberty Bank a full-service community bank.
Leading the push for First Liberty Title was Charles McGuire, chairman of the FLB board of directors, and former owner of Tarver Abstract in Liberty. McGuire credited the title company’s three employees – Sheri Landriault, Lindsey Votaw and Kyndall Smith – as the impetus for starting the new title service in his remarks at a grand opening celebration on Monday, Nov. 20.
“Sheri has just a little bit of experience,” said McGuire, jokingly, at the celebration. “She’s been the title examiner for all of Liberty County for at least 42 years. She knows the business.”
Explaining why he believes First Liberty Title is better than other title companies, McGuire said, “I think we have one advantage in that we are part of First Liberty Bank, which is if not the biggest source of home loans in Liberty County, it’s certainly one of the largest. We have a mortgage department where we will be happy to make a home loan, an insurance agency that will be happy to provide insurance for the transaction and now we have a title insurance agency that will close the transaction.”
McGuire said Liberty County is seeing new growth opportunities thanks to the Grand Parkway and the never-ending sprawl of Houston.
