Geoffrey



Geoff serves as Commercial Underwriter for Chicago Title's Columbus National Commercial Services (NCS) operation underwriting commercial transactions. Joining the industry in 1987, he brings his extensive experience to the Columbus NCS. Geoff has 22 years of experience examining residential and commercial title and managed a residential title office for 12 years. The latter included searching commercial and residential foreclosure orders, making residential underwriting decisions, and providing clients solutions to title issues and problems. Geoff believes the key to a successful outcome is consistent contact with the client throughout the entire process.

The ‘art’ of title includes putting together all the pieces of the puzzle in order to see the complete picture with the end result being a smooth and satisfactory closing to the transaction.


Geoff resides in Columbus. He has served as Greater Hilltop Area Commissioner since 2011 and President of The Highland West Civic Association (2009-2018 and 2020 – present). He graduated cum laude from Augustana University, Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
