Overview

Mission

The New York state land title association, inc. Is a not-for-profit membership association that serves to advance the common interests of all those engaged in the business of abstracting, examining and insuring titles, and otherwise facilitating real estate transactions and interests therein.

What it reported doing in 2025

Lobbying and legislative advocacy: the association actively monitors legislation and pending regulations by state and local governments. Bills entered in the state legislature are reviewed and when deemed to have an impact on the concerns of title insurance, the association will issue memornada in support or opposition. These memos seek to inform and illuminate the issues for the members of the assembly and senate thereby encouraging their support for the best interests of the title industry and consumers. The association meets regularly with the state insurance department to address title insurance issues and to serve as an expert source of information and opinion on title insurance.
