Buying a home should be a time of excitement, not anxiety. But with the rise in real estate wire fraud and identity spoofing, ensuring a secure transaction has never been more critical. As part of BesTitle’s commitment to secure and seamless closings, we use the advanced security technology of Qualia Shield to safeguard every transaction.
Our Commitment to Preventing Real Estate Fraud
Wire fraud in real estate often begins with a fake email, a spoofed identity, or a cleverly disguised link. In some cases, scammers impersonate sellers, using forged documents or stolen identities to deceive professionals and buyers alike.
This isn’t a hypothetical threat, it’s actually happening in real estate markets across the country.
To keep our clients protected, BesTitle partners with Qualia Shield, an end-to-end identity verification and fraud detection solution to stay a step ahead of increasingly sophisticated schemes to protect your real estate transactions.
What Is Qualia Shield?
Qualia Shield is an automated identity verification service that analyzes extensive public records to confirm a person’s existence and identifies potential risks. By checking an individual’s digital footprint across various datasets, Qualia Shield helps title and escrow companies ensure they are working with real, legitimate people and not fraudulent sellers.
Key benefits to safeguard your closing include:
- Identity Verification through Connect – Qualia Shield verifies the identity of all parties using secure, third-party-backed protocols, dramatically reducing the risk of impersonation by fake sellers or unauthorized participants.
- Real-Time Wire Fraud Monitoring – It scans transactions for suspicious behavior, known threat signatures, and inconsistencies—alerting our team to potential risks before they can escalate.
- Secure Communication Channels – All communications regarding wiring instructions and sensitive documentation are delivered through encrypted, verified channels to prevent tampering or phishing attempts.
Why Qualia Shield Protection Matters
Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned agent, you should never have to worry about the integrity of the process. At BesTitle, we use Qualia Shield to ensure that each transaction is:
- Authentic – We know who we’re dealing with, and so do you.
- Private – Your financial and personal data stay secure.
- Trustworthy – You’re not left guessing whether that wire instruction is real or a trap.
Our job is to make the journey to homeownership smooth, clear, and protected. We believe title services should be more than just a line item, they should be your strongest ally in protecting one of the biggest investments of your life.
