First American Launches New Property Research Website

computer-with-channelsFirst American Financial Corporation, a provider of title insurance, settlement services, and risk solutions for real estate transactions, recently announced the launch of the its new DataTree property research solution.

The program is designed to deliver the property-centric information that professionals in the mortgage, real estate, and land services industries require to make informed business decisions, First American reported. It is backed by the industry’s largest database of property and homeowner information and document images, covering 99 percent of U.S. housing stock and including more than 5.5 billion recorded document images.

“Our extensive market research revealed that professionals have three priorities when choosing a property and mortgage information research solution: data quality, speed and ease of use, both in the office and on their mobile devices,” said George Livermore, EVP of First American Data and Mortgage Solutions. “We created DataTree specifically to address these priorities and to deliver insight and flexibility that is superior to any other solution on the market.”

DataTree's verified record function allows users to access and verify public record information using proprietary processing algorithms, the company said. This form of verification labels the record as verified, offering confidence when handling public record data. The company also uses FlexSearch, a search engine that allows business professionals to search instantly for any name or phrase contained within billions of recorded land documents, such as deeds, judgments, liens, and releases.

Users can also access DataTree through their mobile devices and tablets to research properties comprising 99 percent of the U.S. housing stock, the company reported. The map and GPS technology helps users locate properties quickly.  Once a property is located, users can access property information, recorded document images, and property reports. DataTree Mobile is available in the Apple App Store.

DataTree allows business professionals to quickly find and analyze results by merging map, address, owner, document, parcel number, and advanced search options into one intuitive solution, the company says. The program also allows users to conduct multiple searches at a time without losing any work.
