You need to decide what areas you are most qualified in based on education and practical experience. Design your resume and then go knock on title agency, real estate, mortgage and attorney doors. Simply obtaining a license, for any profession, doesn't mean you are automatically have the skills and knowledge required to do the job. You may want to find a mentor, take additional courses and network with other producers, etc. to gain experience and knowledge in order to become the "resident expert."

In NJ you must have a title insurance producer's license in order to effect or sell title insurance. A "resident" producer's license is for someone residing (a resident) in the state of New Jersey. A "foreign" producer's license would be someone living outside of NJ, but effecting or selling title insurance. A licensed title producer can: perform title examinations, prepare title commitments/binders, give title insurance quotes, sell title insurance products/services, perform real estate closings/settlements and issue title insurance policies. Anyone receiving title insurance commissions must be licensed, including attorneys. A non-licensed person working in a title agency may perform administrative acts only that do not involve the above, which are considered "effecting and selling" title insurance. A resident producer is licensed bi-annually and required to take Continuing Education during each licensing period.
1. Register your new business entity and name with State of NJ (LLC, Corp, etc.) 2. Obtain title producer's license or hire someone with an existing title producer's license. 3.
