Have You Heard? Surety Title Is Moving!


The real estate industry is in the midst of a dramatically changing regulatory environment. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (an outgrowth of Dodd-Frank) is a heartbeat away. Compliance with that Act, of necessity, will become an integral part of the title insurance business.

As these regulations begin to develop, the needs of our customer will expand, become more relevant and determine how we’re functionally mandated to operate. Our Company continues to aggressively plan for those anticipated changes.

Surety’s new facility will viably accommodate the myriad of compliance issues, will be designed to expand our service capability and will be an office to which you’ll be proud to take your clients.

Surety will be ready to embrace the next decade. Our new Headquarters will reflect our consummate endeavor to better serve our most important asset... our customer!

Our New Location:
11 Eves Drive, Suite 150
Marlton, NJ 08053

Supporting Breast Cancer Awareness

Here at Surety Title, we are participating in "Pink Friday" every week during October in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. While most people are aware of breast cancer, many forget to take the steps to have a plan to detect the disease in its early stages, or encourage others to do the same. Check out a group shot of Surety Title employees showing their support in the fight against breast cancer!
