RE: UNDERWRITING - Hurricane Helene

Dear Associates:

If you are asked to insure a closing in a county in which the clerk of court, register of deeds, or tax office is closed, you should reach out to one of our North Carolina underwriters for further guidance. 

If you have any questions relating to this or other bulletins, please contact a Stewart Title Guaranty Company underwriter.
