In an exclusive interview with The Title Report, Razi Title Chief Technology Officer Robert Zwink outlined these additions to his company’s platform, which were made in December. “In our experience, there’s generally always a backlog of paperwork via title plants or data warehouses or starter management systems,” he said. “It all seems to lead back to there being a stack of paper everywhere.

Razi Exchange launches prior policy platform

Razi Exchange launched a national independent prior policy technology platform. The company said it aimed to enable a more efficient title transfer process by creating an open market exchange to buy and sell prior policies, organize and search existing policies, and generate business leads.


“Today, title professionals create valuable intellectual property that is inefficient to leverage to its maximum potential,” Razi Exchange co-founder and CEO Lili Farhandi said in a release. “We have listened to real-world challenges from leaders in the industry and have created the first independent national platform. The Razi Exchange helps lower the costs and the time of performing a title search, resulting in a more predictable closing, all the while enabling platform users to unlock new revenue streams.


“Customers who use the Razi Exchange platform save time on the closing process by not requiring a full title search on each transaction, shortening the title search process by an average of approximately 80 percent,” she added. According to Farhandi, Razi has thousands of policies on the platform, the count is growing daily.
