As one of Europe’s largest renewable energy developers, the client was no stranger to navigating complex land acquisitions. However, their reliance on major title insurance underwriters presented significant roadblocks.
The process was not only slow, with long turnaround times that hindered swift deal-making, but also restrictive.
Once the client requested title information from a particular insurer, they were locked into purchasing insurance from that same provider.
The lack of flexibility made it difficult to negotiate favorable terms and prevented them from exploring more competitive insurance options. The delays also introduced financial risk. Sellers had the opportunity to raise prices or stall negotiations while waiting for the developer’s due diligence to finalize, jeopardizing critical project timelines.
To overcome these constraints, the client turned to Pippin Title. Pippin provided faster, more agile title research services, offering the developer the ability to conduct quiet, under-the-radar due diligence, well before formal negotiations began. This stealth approach allowed the client to gather key insights on properties without alerting sellers or prematurely engaging insurers.
Pippin’s platform offered broad data access and quick turnaround, making it easier to assess viability, flag risks, and keep timelines on track, all without being tied to a specific underwriter from the start.
