What are the responsibilities and job description for the Real Estate Title Abstractor position at NVR Inc?
NVR has been helping families build their happily ever after since 1948. As a Top 5 US homebuilder, we’re committed to quality and to our customers and we take pride in the over 600,000 new homes we have sold and built across the country. Working in the homebuilding industry is tangible and rewarding, but not every job at NVR requires a hard hat. We don’t just sell and build new homes; we also manage teams, acquire land, manufacture materials, provide mortgages to our customers, and provide corporate support to NVR’s multi-billion dollar business operations.
Location: Hybrid at our NVR Settlement Services office in Fairfax, VA. After 3-6 months of in-office training at our Fairfax office, this is a remote position that requires one day a week in the office for title training and team meetings.
About the Role
As a Real Estate Title Abstractor for NVR Settlement Services, you’ll review and interpret real estate documents (e.g., deeds, plats, liens, judgments), create reports of title, and learn search and examination language to mitigate risk for both our homebuying customers and homebuilder partners from Ryan Homes, NVHomes, and Heartland Homes.
No real estate title experience needed. We will provide you with all necessary training to perform the role successfully and offer an independent and structured work environment ideal for focused, organized, and detail-oriented candidates!
