Acquisition of Core Title’s Northville Office Marks Company’s 47th Midwest Location and Second Acquisition this Month
CHICAGO, IL – October 13, 2026 – On the heels of last week’s acquisition of Mason Title from Amtrust Financial Services, Near North Title Group, a national title insurance agency operating 65 offices across the Midwest and Florida, announces the acquisition of the Northville, Michigan office of Core Title Group. The transaction marks Near North’s 47th office in the Midwest and extends the company’s 65 residential and commercial title operations into yet another major Midwestern market.
This office joins Near North’s growing roster of Midwest locations including Chicago, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, the Milwaukee metro area and the St. Louis metro area, further strengthening the company’s geographic density across the region and extending its Midwest network further into Michigan.
East coast-based Core Title, which operates offices across New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida, chose to transition its single Michigan office to Near North to align it with a strong Midwestern platform. The Northville team will continue to operate from its suburban Detroit location, backed by Near North’s national underwriting relationships, centralized escrow and accounting operations, and compliance and licensing infrastructure. Core Title Group continues to serve its East Coast and Florida clientele throughout its core markets.
“This Detroit area acquisition is a strong geographic fit for Near North as it complements the suite of services we have built throughout our other major Midwest markets”, said Near North CEO Daniel Fowler. “We look forward to welcoming the Detroit team to our platform.”
“We’ve enjoyed working alongside our colleagues in Michigan for many years,” said Core Title Group CEO Dave Danheim. “Without other operations nearby, we felt it was the right time for our Michigan team to join a powerhouse agency with such a great geographic fit. Core will continue to serve our clients across New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida, and we’re pleased that our former colleagues have transitioned into such a dynamic group.”
This transaction reflects Near North’s long-term strategy of growth through M&A activity and organic expansion. The company expects to continue its strategy into 2027 with a focus on quality operations throughout the country.
