Gateway Title
8748 Brecksville Rd. Suite 100, Brecksville, OH 44141
Rachel Torchia, owner of Gateway Title Agency, has been working in the real estate industry since 1977. First as a Realtor, then in the marketing and title and escrow sides of the industry, Rachel decided to focus solely on FSBO transactions and created Gateway Title Agency in 1993. “When people decide to sell their homes without a Realtor, it’s a personal decision—but they still need experienced guidance through the process,” says Rachel. “That’s where Gateway Title Agency comes in. In Ohio, you can sell your home without an attorney or even a lender if the buyer offers cash, but you need a title company to examine and insure your title. Our free kit will walk you through the entire title and escrow process.” Gateway Title Agency also offers a workshop where experts like appraisers and Realtors offer advice about marketing and preparing your own home for sale, paperwork necessary for FSBO transactions, and everything involved in selling your own home. “Today, 25 percent of the home sale market is FSBO deals,” says Rachel. “We love helping people through this process and seeing them feel victorious in getting it done—and saving a lot of money along the way.”
