New England Land Title Association (NELTA) is one of the title industry's premier resources for education, information and networking. Organized in 1970, NELTA is currently comprised of nearly 400 members from each of the six New England states. Our membership includes title insurance underwriting companies and corporate abstract companies; real estate attorneys, paralegals, and corporate title agents; bankers, land surveyors, abstractors and others in businesses directly related to the title industry.
NELTA members continue to vigilantly monitor the legislative issues affecting our industry and work to protect their interests. NELTA members stay abreast of their profession by their involvement with other practitioners who share the same concerns and face the same challenges and know the enormous value that membership affords by enhancing their professional careers.

NELTA members stay up-to-date on the latest industry issues with spring and fall educational programs. Many of our new members hear about NELTA through the educational programs we put on throughout New England. The education committee is finalizing our spring seminar in Boston in April, "My Client Has A Title Claim! Is It Actually Covered By A Title Policy?"  Be sure to check the NELTA web site at www.nelta.org for complete information and registration forms.
NELTA will hold its 40th Annual Convention at the Wequassett Inn Resort and Golf Club in Chatham, Cape Cod, Mass. from June 18th-21st.
Mark Winter, executive vice president of public policy for the American Land Title Association (ALTA) in Washington, D.C. is the keynote Speaker giving members the national viewpoint on the title industry, advising on current trends and changes, and will report on ALTA activities on behalf of the industry. These meetings are a wonderful mix of personal relaxation, professional education, with up-to-date industry information, family entertainment, and fabulous social events. Complete information and registration forms are on the NELTA web site at www.nelta.org.
