Alliant National Title Insurance Company, the title insurer that is uniquely responsive to the needs of independent agents, is excited to announce that it has hired Christina Blum as Underwriting Counsel Southwest Region.
For over 11 years, Blum has been a fixture in the title industry. Her career began in 2013 when she worked in the claims center of a national underwriter. Starting in 2018, she served as underwriting counsel for two national underwriters and worked as a real estate and banking attorney for a large, regional law firm in San Antonio.
In her new role as Underwriting Counsel Southwest Region, Blum will focus on supporting Alliant National’s policy-issuing agents with their underwriting needs.

I look forward to navigating the evolving and challenging real estate landscape with the rest of Alliant National’s expert team.”

Bailey, VP, Regional Underwriting Counsel at Alliant National. “She brings significant experience that will enhance our operations, grow our footprint and assist our agents in addressing their most critical underwriting priorities.”

In addition, she is part of the Oklahoma Land Title Association, the American Land Title Association and holds membership in the Commercial Real Estate Women, San Antonio Chapter.
