CHICAGO
(June 8, 2015) – Northbrook, Ill.-based Proper Title, LLC, a full-service title

Wrightsell as senior escrow officer and manager, Patrick H. Kennedy as commercial closing manager, and Brenda Krasuski as senior escrow

Proper Title
has grown its staff by a total of 15 percent and its business by 50 percent
over the past year.
“The amount
of industry talent joining Proper Title has led to the tremendous growth of our
firm’s business,” said Ben Niernberg,

development and operations at Proper
Title.

Niernberg said, “Having more than three decades
of experience in the title insurance industry, Shirley not only knows how
things need to be done, but where things can improve.
"Add to that her hands-on
approach and unwavering attention to detail, and she’s an invaluable asset who
can help us grow our commercial division.”
Patrick H. Kennedy, 40, brings nearly 20 years of
experience in oversight of commercial real estate closings to the role of
commercial closing manager at Proper Title.
“Patrick
is proficient in virtually every type of property, and works with all sizes of
lenders, law firms, and local governments, as well as federal agencies,” said
Niernberg.
“There isn’t a situation he hasn’t seen, or cannot efficiently
handle for a client.” Kennedy was also the recipient of Fidelity Investments’
“President’s Club Award” 2004 through 2010.

Proper Title
has also welcomed Brenda Krasuski,
48, to the commercial escrow team as a senior escrow officer. She has spent the
past 13 years providing commercial escrow services throughout the Chicago area,
including Chicago Title Insurance Company, and will focus primarily on
residential transactions.
“Proper
Title was assessed by a national underwriter, which found we were over-staffed
by 30 percent according to industry norms. That fact has contributed to our
closing times being more than 30 minutes shorter, on average, than the norm,”
said Niernberg.
“But it’s not just the number of people at Proper Title, it’s
the experience and drive of each of these individuals that allows our firm to
elevate people’s expectations of how things are done at the closing table. And
that’s good for everyone.”
