The American Land Title Association (ALTA), the national trade association of the land title insurance industry, commends the U.S. Senate for confirming Bill Pulte as the new director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA).
“ALTA congratulates Bill Pulte on being confirmed as the next FHFA director by the U.S. Senate. We look forward to working with Director Pulte and the Trump administration to foster policies that expand homeownership opportunities by promoting housing stability, reducing financial risks for homeowners and supporting a fair and transparent real estate market,” said ALTA CEO Diane Tomb. “As the FHFA takes steps to address the housing shortage, it is essential to remember that title insurance and the work of title professionals secure the integrity of every real estate transaction in America. It protects property rights, reduces risk and ensures confidence in homeownership.”
ALTA remains committed to advocating for policies that strengthen the housing market while safeguarding property rights for homeowners in every community nationwide.

We stand ready to work with Director Pulte to help address the nation’s housing affordability crisis by promoting policies that ensure stable and liquid mortgage markets for single-family and multifamily housing.
