Built for Ohio closings
This page is for Ohio title agencies, escrow offices and closing attorneys who need a new website or a rebuild of the one they have. It explains how we design an Ohio title company website, which calculators and online forms are included, and what the monthly cost is. We build websites for the title industry and nothing else, and every Ohio project starts with the state rules below.
Ohio title insurance rates are filed with the Ohio Department of Insurance, so premiums vary between underwriters and your quote is genuinely your own. Ohio also lets title agencies conduct closings directly, which means your website is the front door to the whole transaction.
The Ohio-specific trap is the conveyance fee. It is not one statewide number — it is a mandatory state rate plus a county permissive rate that differs across Ohio's 88 counties, and getting it wrong makes every estimate on your site wrong.
- Filed premium rates configured to your underwriter
- State conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 in all 88 counties
- County permissive fee of up to $3 per $1,000, set per county
- Seller net sheets accurate to Ohio closings
- Local SEO for your Ohio county and city
- Online order intake for Ohio Realtors and lenders
Calculators built for Ohio, fitted to your site
Custom calculators are the core of what we do. Each one we build for an Ohio agency runs on Ohio’s actual rules — filed rates, the state conveyance fee plus each county's permissive fee, and tax proration customs that differ across the state — and is styled to your brand and placed in your own page layout, rather than embedded as a generic widget with your logo pasted on top.
Choose the tools that match your Ohio workflow. These six are the ones Ohio agencies ask for first; fourteen are available.

Forms that do the back-and-forth for you
Intake forms live on your Ohio site, so an agent opens the order, a lender requests what they need and the buyer and seller complete their sheets online instead of by email. Each submission arrives as a finished PDF that goes straight into the file in your title software. Every form carries your branding and works on a phone. The six below are the most used by Ohio agencies; eleven are available.
Submit a Contract
Clients upload a signed purchase contract and any addenda — you open the file and start title work right away.
Open form →Buyer Information Sheet
Buyers complete intake online and you receive it as a PDF — or they download it to fill out by hand.
Open form →Seller Information Sheet
Sellers complete intake online and you receive a PDF — or download it to complete on paper.
Open form →Payoff Authorization
Sellers and refinancers e-sign to authorize a payoff request — so net sheets are accurate and prior liens clear at closing.
Open form →Open a Title Order
Agents and lenders open a new file in one step — property, parties, lender, and closing date. No back-and-forth emails.
Open form →Secure Document Upload
Clients upload IDs, payoffs, and sensitive documents through an encrypted portal.
Open form →The conveyance fee is county-specific, and that is the whole problem
Ohio levies a mandatory statewide real property conveyance fee of one mill — $1 per $1,000 of the value transferred — and it applies in all 88 counties. That part never changes.
What changes is the permissive fee. Ohio counties may levy an additional permissive conveyance fee of up to three mills, or $3 per $1,000, and each county sets its own. Most Ohio counties levy the full permissive amount, which brings the common total to $4 per $1,000 — but that is a convention, not a rule, and a calculator that hardcodes $4 will be wrong in every county that levies less.
This is the single clearest reason an Ohio title agency should not use a national calculator. A tool that applies one statewide conveyance rate produces a wrong closing estimate the moment a file crosses a county line, and in a state with 88 counties that happens constantly.
Ohio agencies conduct their own closings, so the site carries more weight
Ohio does not require an attorney to conduct a residential closing, which means your agency is typically running the transaction end to end. Your website is therefore not a marketing brochure attached to someone else's process — it is the intake point for the whole file.
Practically, that argues for putting the order form, the fee quote and the secure document exchange on the front page rather than behind a Services menu. The Realtor sending you a file should be able to do it in under a minute without calling your office.

Common questions
Are the calculators accurate for Ohio?
Yes — we configure the state conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 plus the specific permissive fee levied by each county you close in, rather than applying one statewide default.
What is the Ohio conveyance fee?
A mandatory state fee of $1 per $1,000 of value applies in all 88 counties. Counties may add a permissive fee of up to $3 per $1,000, so many Ohio transfers total $4 per $1,000 — but the permissive portion is set county by county.
Are Ohio title rates the same at every agency?
No. Ohio is a filed-rate state, so premiums are filed with the Ohio Department of Insurance and differ between underwriters.
Does Ohio require an attorney at closing?
Ohio does not require an attorney to conduct a residential closing, so title agencies commonly run the file end to end. We build the site as the intake point for that whole process.
Can you target my specific Ohio county?
Yes — we build county and city pages for the markets you close in, from Franklin and Cuyahoga to smaller rural counties.
What does an Ohio title agency website cost per month?
Three plans: $75 a month puts the Ohio calculators and forms on your existing website; $150 a month is a custom 25-page site with all fourteen calculators, forms, hosting and local SEO; $399 a month is a 50-page site with monthly blog content and ads management. There is no setup fee and you can cancel any month.
We already have a Ohio title company website. Can you redesign it?
Yes, and that is the most common project. We move your existing content over, preserve your page addresses so your Google rankings carry across, add the Ohio calculators and intake forms, and host the new site on secure, ADA-compliant hosting. If you want to keep the site you have, the $75 plan adds the tools to it as-is.
Conveyance fee figures per the Ohio Department of Taxation real property conveyance fee summary. County permissive rates are set locally and change — verify your county before relying on any figure.
