This newest Stewart operation joins a growing network of Latin American
and Caribbean operations providing both international and local purchasers and
lenders with cutting-edge title and real estate information services. The
focus for Stewart Title Eastern Caribbean will be the development of Stewart
operations throughout the English, French and Dutch-speaking Caribbean
islands.
"Investors in the Caribbean have been seeking secure title guarantees and
enhanced real estate services for some time," said John Benjamin, a solicitor
in Anguilla's capital, The Valley. "That is why the present Caribbean market
is ideal for Stewart Title."
Benjamin is a local partner of Stewart Title Eastern Caribbean, which is a
subsidiary of Stewart Title Latin America Inc.
"With the increased amount of investment in the Caribbean real estate
market and repeated requests from our clients, this is the ideal location for
a new Stewart operation," said Christopher Hill, general manager, Stewart
Title Latin America.
Stewart Title Eastern Caribbean provides a suite of products and services
that enhance the local Caribbean real estate transaction process. The
office's products and services include title guarantees, escrow services,
closing coordination, online file management and other administrative services
that are necessary for a Caribbean real estate closing.
"We are committed to providing developers, individual purchasers and
lenders with the products and services that will make their Caribbean real
estate transaction process more secure and efficient," said Brad DeLoach,
general manager, Stewart Title Eastern Caribbean.
