Complies with ALTA Best Practices Pillar 2
Your title insurance underwriter, state insurance commissioner, state banking department and/or your state’s attorney general and now ALTA Best Practices (or some combination of the foregoing) requires that you reconcile your Escrow / Trust accounts on a monthly basis, without fail.
Penalties for failing to do so may include, depending on your state, the loss of a title insurance license and/or law license. Underwriters can and, depending on circumstances, will revoke your title insurance agency or approved attorney status. Failure to timely reconcile will also prevent your Best Practices certification or perhaps loss of certification in the future.
The monthly reconciliation process can be difficult and time consuming and, you are not making money or advancing your business during this time! FTA is widely recognized for its professional expertise in providing clients with timely and accurate Escrow/Trust account reconciliation reports and doing so in a cost effective and efficient manner.
FTA’s reconciliation reports are accepted by all of the underwriters as well as state insurance regulators. FTA’s services fully comply with ALTA Best Practices, Pillar 2.

Some of our clients share their experience using First Trust Accounting Services (FTA)
“We have used First Trust Accounting Service for our trust account reconciliations for many years. They have been a invaluable asset to our firm in keeping our reconciliations current and helping spot potential problems as soon as they occur. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
-From a Qualia User
“I have used First Trust Accounting since the inception of my company in March of 2004. For over 17 years, I have been 100% satisfied with their service. Any time I have a question, they respond quickly, and have the experience and expertise to answer it. They have a wealth of knowledge about escrow accounting, and have passed on guidance over the years that have helped us run our escrow more efficiently. I cannot think of any way they could improve their service.”
