Episode 99 Overview
Craig Fuhr and Jack BeVier welcome Alex Goldovsky, founder of ProTitle USA, DocSolutions, and One Diligence.
Alex began his career in corporate America before venturing into real estate investing in Pennsylvania. After frustrations with poor title services, he built his own title company—eventually becoming a trusted partner for banks and the FDIC.
Building ProTitle USA: Lessons from Early Challenges
Alex explains how ProTitle USA grew rapidly during the 2008 financial crisis. He accepted a large FDIC project with only three employees and learned to scale through technology and customization.
He emphasizes that to win in business, companies must tailor solutions for each client. Offshoring can be effective, but only when balanced with U.S.-based management and quality control.
Client Customization and Continuous Innovation
Alex constantly watches market news to identify client problems.
For example, he developed tools to QC title waiver programs for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and to detect deed fraud.
Accordingly, he believes success depends on adapting quickly to regulation changes and delivering custom technology-driven products.
The Role of AI in Business and Due Diligence
Transitioning to AI in business, Alex describes his AI-driven firm One Diligence, which uses machine learning and natural language processing to review loan documents for securitizations.
The technology extracts data with near-perfect accuracy by cross-verifying multiple documents. It reduces manual review time while maintaining compliance and precision.
AI Adoption: The Human Challenge
Despite clear efficiency gains, AI adoption faces human resistance.
Employees often distrust AI results and repeat manual checks, negating time savings.
Jack and Alex discuss how businesses must redesign workflows and retrain staff to focus on exception handling instead of repetitive tasks. Consequently, AI in business succeeds only when leadership drives adoption and middle management embraces change.
AI Tools and Real Estate Applications
The hosts explore real estate uses for AI. Alex cites examples such as Angel AI at Sunwest, which helps loan officers instantly match borrowers with eligible loan products.
Jack adds that AI supports property management and compliance tasks, while larger firms benefit most from AI-driven lead generation and document automation. Smaller operators, however, may find implementation costs outweigh the benefits.
Market Outlook and Industry Insights
Alex closes by forecasting rising foreclosures and loan delinquencies, especially in FHA and VA loans. He predicts slight price declines and potential rate cuts, noting that large Wall Street firms are preparing to buy distressed assets.
Individual investors, by contrast, face limited access and higher costs.
Conclusion: The Future of AI in Business
Above all, Alex stresses that AI in business is about creating smarter workflows, not replacing people. Those who adapt will thrive; those who resist may be left behind. All in all, this episode illustrates how technology, innovation, and adaptability continue to redefine success in real estate and beyond.
