Closing Obstacles, Contract Negotiations and Riders from a Real Estate Agent's Perspective
Title Vesting: The long and short by Title Operations Manager at Lawyers Title Orange County
Presented by: Deborah de Anda and Glenn Awerkamp
Speaker Bio: Glenn Awerkamp
As our Title Operations Manager at Lawyers Title Orange County, Glenn Awerkamp exemplifies the knowledge based point person needed to unravel the most complicated transactions. Glenn escalated his way up the ranks from Customer Service to Title Officer to Operations Manager through genuine hard work and extreme attention to detail.
Having a solid foundation to jump from, with his B.A. in Economics from UCI and subsequent M.B.A. from Pepperdine University, launched his career into the Title business. That, combined with the aforementioned upward progression through the ranks of the inner workings of Title Insurance practices, is why his surrounding Title Team and the Sales Representatives out in the field can frequently be heard to say they “can’t live without Glenn”. His strong emphasis in closings, underwriting, customer service, training and process development and improvement makes him an invaluable asset to Lawyers Title. Ironically you would think the immersion into the day-to-day specifics of the business would make him unavailable to the general public due to his many responsibilities when in fact, he is the most approachable of leaders. Countless customers and co-workers alike have benefitted from Glenn’s knowledge and know that were he not involved directly or indirectly with their business, many transactions could have gone awry. 13 years and counting we’re extremely fortunate to have Glenn Awerkamp on our team and you are too!
