First American Financial has completed its $350 million acquisition of Docutech, a provider of document, e-closing and fulfillment technology.

Founded in 1991, Docutech provides solutions that have contributed to the industry’s evolution toward a digital real estate closing experience.

Together, we’re uniquely positioned to provide collateral file management from the inception of the mortgage process through post-closing, which will help accelerate the evolution of real estate closings.”
