First American’s Hawaii offices

First American’s local site has pages for these Hawaii offices. Each page has the branch’s current address, phone and staff, so use the links below rather than an old directory listing.

We didn’t find a First American office page for Kauai. If you’re buying there, ask your agent which escrow companies are handling deals on the island.

Looking for a specific person? We have a page for Deitra Lopez, Branch Escrow Manager at First American’s Hilo office. For anyone else, call the branch and ask for them by name.

What a title and escrow company does in a Hawaii sale

In Hawaii, the same company usually does both jobs. Escrow is the neutral holding point for the deal: the escrow officer takes in the buyer’s deposit and loan funds, collects signatures, pays off the seller’s mortgage, sends the deed for recording and pays everyone out at closing. Title searches the property’s records for liens, easements and ownership problems, and issues title insurance for the buyer and the lender.

Escrow companies in Hawaii have to be licensed by the state Division of Financial Institutions. First American Title Company, Inc. appears on the division’s list of licensed escrow depositories.

Other title companies on Oahu

First American is one of several. Title Guaranty, Old Republic Title and Fidelity National Title & Escrow of Hawaii all have multiple Oahu branches. Our Hawaii title companies directory has main office addresses and phone numbers for each, island by island. If you’re dealing with Old Republic’s Kahala branch, see Jane Iwata at Old Republic Title.

FAQ

Who picks the title company? It’s set in the purchase contract and is negotiable. Buyers, sellers and agents often have a preference, so it’s worth settling early.

Is First American the same as First Hawaii Title? No. First Hawaii Title Corporation is a separate company with its own escrow license.

Can I drop off documents at any First American branch? Not necessarily. Your file is handled by a specific escrow officer, so call before you go.
