Iris® Powered by Generali & ClearEdge Title Announce Partnership to Deliver Industry-Leading Home Title & Identity Protection

CLEARWATER, Fla., May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ClearEdge Title, leading national title & escrow provider for residential and commercial properties, today announced a partnership with Iris^® Powered by Generali ("Iris"), provider of a proprietary identity and cyber protection platform, to offer a robust home title and identity fraud, monitoring, alerts, and resolution solution to ClearEdge Title clients. ClearEdge Property Protection Plus, powered by Iris, is designed to help combat the growing threat of title fraud, identity theft, and related scams targeting homeowners.

"The transaction doesn't have to end at the closing table anymore," said Stephanie Holdsworth, Sr. Vice President Business Development at ClearEdge Title. "We're thrilled to introduce a solution that fills a long-standing gap in the title industry. By integrating Iris solutions into our cutting-edge services, we're adding a layer of security that supports our clients long after the ink has dried. This offering even provides reimbursement for expenses related to title fraud – covering both commercial and residential properties – which is something truly unique in our space."

These home title and identity protection services will be available to ClearEdge Title's broad network of clients, which include processing companies, lenders, mortgage brokers, realtors, and others. A key feature of the package is home title monitoring & alerts, which protects customers against title fraud with ongoing monitoring of their property titles and alert notifications if there are any changes.

Increasingly, the real estate industry is seeing fraudsters forge deeds and impersonate homeowners. They then use that false ownership to sell the home without the owner's knowledge; take out a second mortgage or home equity line of credit (HELOC); or refinance the property and disappear with the funds. Because these changes are made through official records, victims often don't realize what's happened until it's too late – like when they receive a foreclosure notice or are denied financing. Among other fraud detection and support features, the package also includes 24/7/365 U.S.-based, multi-lingual fraud resolution assistance and up to $2 million in title identity theft expense reimbursement for both residential and commercial properties*.

"Home title fraud is one of the fastest-growing threats facing property owners, and it's increasingly tied to broader identity theft tactics," said Paul Quintal, Chief Revenue Officer of Iris Powered by Generali. "It's no surprise that our Identity & Cybersecurity Concerns Survey found that 1 in 3 believe moving to a new location makes them most vulnerable to identity theft compared to other life events. Our partnership with ClearEdge Title delivers anti-fraud technology, notifications, and white glove assistance, providing peace of mind that I know a lot of homeowners are looking for today."

ClearEdge Title's reputation for fundamentally transforming what has long been an antiquated and often cumbersome process makes them a natural partner for integrating Iris' comprehensive identity & home title protection offering. ClearEdge Title maintains the highest level of compliance with state, federal and industry standards and regulations, with accreditations including an SSAE 18 and ALTA Best Practices certifications and is a vetted & verified partner of Stewart and Secure Insight.
