    About Titan Property Services We are an investigative property research firm operating at the intersection of real estate, genealogy, and public records. Our team digs deep — tracing ownership histories, locating heirs across generations, and building airtight research files that unlock funds for clients who never thought they’d see a dime. If you’re the kind of person who can’t let a puzzle go unsolved, who treats a cold trail as a challenge rather than a dead end, and who takes pride in finding what others miss — you belong on this team.

    Who We're Looking For If you've worked in property tax collection, mortgage servicing, foreclosure processing, title research, or a county tax appraisal district — and you know how to find people who don't want to be found — this role was built for you. We're not looking for a lab researcher or a criminal investigator.
