Thoroughbred Title Services

Eric Swarthout has served as president of Thoroughbred Title Services since 2014, and his penchant for doing things differently has made it the largest title insurance agency in Westchester, N.Y., for two years in a row. The company’s competitive business model and commitment to clients have allowed it to grow market share and overall business. 

Swarthout is committed to innovation and developed one of the first full-service title agencies offering discounted premiums in New York State. Thoroughbred Title Services, a Houlihan Lawrence affiliate, has saved over 13,000 homebuyers almost $6 million in closing costs.

“In today’s real estate market, it’s not enough to be a knowledgeable and experienced agent. Success requires a specialized team approach from start to finish,” Swarthout says. “Thoroughbred Title Services partners closely with the Houlihan Lawrence team to create a seamless client experience every step of the way. Homebuyers are making a huge financial investment, and at Thoroughbred Title Services, we work hard to offer them substantial savings and great service, which enhances the closing process. Because of this, the Houlihan Lawrence agents can recommend Thoroughbred Title Services to their clients with confidence.” 

Swarthout began his career in title insurance in 1998. In 2009, he assumed the role of director of operations for Thoroughbred Title Services and used his computer science background to apply unique processes and systems to coordinate day-to-day title production.

Swarthout serves on the Executive Committee of the New York State Land Title Association and is an active member of the Real Estate Services Providers Council.
