Dana Freitas

VP/County Manager Ticor Title Portland
I graduated from the University of Oregon in 2001 and am an avid Duck Fan! After college I worked at Multnomah County Jail as a release officer. I then fell into the escrow world in 2004 with help of my brother who is in the real estate space. I took an Assistant job for a large producer at Chicago Title and after perfecting the assistant position, I became an Escrow Officer. I built my desk by having exceptional customer service. I was once told “ always answer the phone with a smile on your face. This is so true as the person on the other line knew they had my attention and were the most important person at that moment. I built a large desk utilizing my team as my backbone. I have closed all types of transactions from refinances, to sub divisions and everything in between. I pride myself on my communication and quick response time. I always want to get my client’s what they need before they ask. After 1O years closing escrows, I became the Escrow Operations Manager for Chicago Title Oregon for 6 1/2 years. I now live in Spokane and am the County Manager for Ticor Title . I treat my employees the same way I treated my clients. I take a lot of pride at watching them grow and achieve their goals. I make myself available to my staff and they know I am their biggest cheerleader. I love what I do and could not do it without my team behind me! My motto is.....“Excellence is not a skill, it’s an attitude”

Chicago Title has been so good to me! Since day one, I have felt nothing by support and encouragement from the staff and leadership here. Truly, management takes a personal interest in your success, investing resources to help you grow, both personally and professionally.

Within my first year, I was given the opportunity to take part in a personalized coaching program that did wonders for building my business and my self-esteem. I’m a better escrow officer for it.

But growing your business is not their main priority. Chicago Title also invests heavily in having fun too. Between beach retreats, fabulous parties and hosting our very own Hood to Coast team (just to name a few), they understand a happy team, is a successful team.

I would highly recommend Chicago Title to anyone in the real estate business looking for a company where they can be challenged and inspired!

Lender Division Manager
Chicago Title is a great place to work for many reasons, the management team truly values and cares for the employees. They focus on and reward employees for contributions and celebrate achievements. We are afforded every opportunity to grow and provided with the right tools to do so. I think the most rewarding career move is on that allows you to apply and utilize your past experience and accomplishments while still offering you a new perspective and growth. The encouragement I receive daily from my team-mates and manager push me to be the best I can be.

Senior Escrow Assistant
I have worked in the industry for almost 10 years and was very leery about going to different company. I decided to at least meet up and see what Chicago was all about, what could it hurt? It was a Monday, I met with Dana and Tricia. We discussed the training programs, the incentives, the management, the company. Good vibes came from the meeting and I decided to take the next step and meet Cyndi and Kathy that Wednesday. I was sold. The positive and contagious positive energy flowing out of these meetings – just floored me. You mean, I can love what I do, the company, who I work for, the management – ALL AT ONCE?!?!??! By that Friday I resigned from my previous position and joined the Chicago family. There hasn’t been one, not ONE moment of regret. I 100% made the right decision, and am very excited about my career here with Chicago Title.
