Coast Title celebrates 20th anniversary
Coast Title Insurance Agency was founded in 1995 by Sandra McDermott and three other partners, and, just recently, it celebrated 20 years in business.
By 2007, McDermott, who serves as president and co-owner of two other affiliated title companies, bought out the partners and became the sole owner of Coast Title.
“I feel proud to work with such an experienced and dedicated team of title professionals; we would not be in business this long if it weren’t for my incredible staff,” McDermott said. “Our office staff has a combined title experience of over 140 years, and that makes a huge difference, especially with the changes that are happening in the title insurance industry right now.”
According to McDermott, it’s unusual for title offices to have more than two licensed agents in the same office, but Coast Title has four on staff.
McDermott also credited Coast Title’s longevity to a few business mentors she’s had over the years, her relationships with local realtors, homebuilders and lenders.
Owning her own business, she’s had ups and downs, including the real estate market crash that hit Flagler County, especially around 2007.
Along with its 20-year anniversary, Coast Title has also relaunched a brand new website, coast-title.com. Visit 15 Cypress Branch Way, Unit 203. Call 445-2100.

Coastal Cloud reaches 100th client
Coastal Cloud recently acquired RS Medical out of Vancouver, Washington, which is the company’s 100th client after only two-and-a-half years in business.
“Reaching 100 clients in such a short period while maintaining a 100% customer retention rate speaks volumes about our business model and our team,” said Tim Hale, Coastal Cloud Managing Partner and co-founder. “Our commitment to have 100% of our technology team Salesforce.com certified with an intense focus on client satisfaction has paid off.”
“When RS Medical made the decision to invest in software improvements we requested quotes from many cloud-based software consultants,” said Sean Kerr, Vice President of Operations at RS Medical. “Coastal Cloud stood out from the competition because of their competitive cost, team expertise, and flexibility to meet our unique business needs.”
