Overview

Mission

The South Dakota land title association promotes the safe and efficient transfer of real property while providing its title insurance professionals and affiliates with support, information, and education.

What it reported doing in 2024

Our mid-winter meeting consists of a casual social gathering on tuesday evening, providing an opportunity for members to connect informally. The following wednesday is dedicated to educational sessions, which often feature guest speakers such as the head of the register of deeds, who shares updates relevant to abstracters, or representatives from the South Dakota unified judicial system, who discuss changes to ecourts and ujs, important resources for researching judgments. Additionally, members have the chance to share any notable issues they've encountered, such as fraud or other concerns affecting their offices, ensuring everyone stays informed and prepared.
