Proper Title Appoints Commercial Underwriting Counsel
April 2, 2026
Proper Title LLC bolstered its commercial services division with the addition of Maria Milutinovic as commercial underwriting counsel.
A 10-year veteran of the title insurance industry, Milutinovic most recently served as an attorney title officer at Chicago Title Insurance Co. In her new role, she will support Proper Title’s growing commercial pipeline, working closely with customers and internal teams to ensure a smooth and efficient underwriting process.
“Maria brings a deep understanding of both residential and commercial underwriting, along with the practical experience needed to navigate complex transactions,” said Kathy Kwak, COO of Proper Title. “As we continue to expand our national commercial platform, her expertise will help us deliver the high level of service and certainty our customers rely on.”
A dual-degree attorney, Milutinovic brings experience across health care, compliance and mortgage law, with a strong foundation in underwriting analysis, legal research and client advisory. In previous roles, she has worked in fast-paced environments managing complex transactions, navigating evolving regulatory considerations and developing practical solutions for customers.
“The opportunity to join the agency during this time of accelerated growth in its local and national commercial presence is one of many reasons I came to Proper Title,” Milutinovic said. “In addition, the team’s collaborative approach and commitment to delivering a high level of service across complex transactions made this a great fit, and I look forward to supporting customers as they navigate an increasingly nuanced deal environment.”
