The special presentation took place during the 10th Annual State of Real Estate Forum that is coordinated and hosted by Edwards Abstract and Title Co. The title insurance company was founded in 1880 and has been consistently serving the region for the past thirteen decades. The company’s rich history coupled with the ability to embrace change has been the key components to continued success. During 2014, Edwards Abstract and Title Co. has been serving South Texas and the surrounding region for 134 years.
The corporate office was founded in Edinburg in 1880. Today, four branch offices serve Hidalgo County. Full service branches are located in McAllen, Mission, Weslaco and Edinburg.

The expansion welcomed an additional three branch offices in the cities of Brownsville, South Padre Island and Harlingen.
