Each quarter, SoftPro sponsors Trendsetters by October Research. This series focuses on professionals in the title insurance industry who have made a significant impact and emerged as leaders, demonstrating their passion for the industry in everything they do professionally.
This quarter, Trendsetters features Susan Engelke, president of Illinois-based Abstracts & Titles, Inc. Susan has been working in the title industry for 60 years, and at age 78, she's not quite done yet.
When you read the full Trendsetters report, you'll learn how Susan began working for Abstracts & Titles in the typing department two months after graduating high school and eventually ascended to co-ownership then exclusive ownership. Susan has become a staple in her community and in 2020, she was inducted into the Greater Gateway Association of Realtors' Hall of Fame for her service to the industry.
