The American Land Title Association (ALTA) announced the appointment of Chris Morton as its new CEO. He succeeds Diane Tomb, who stepped down after serving six years in the leadership role.
Morton previously served as ALTA’s senior vice president of public affairs and chief advocacy officer. He has been recognized as a Top Lobbyist by The Hill newspaper and named as one of the 500 Most Influential People Shaping Policy by Washingtonian magazine.
“I am humbled by the industry’s faith and trust in me,” Morton said. “Our leadership remains deeply committed to continuing ALTA’s legacy of promoting the title industry and the tens of thousands of title professionals across the country. These dedicated individuals work every day to protect the American Dream of homeownership in their communities. As we continue to tackle challenges like housing supply and affordability, I’m excited to lead an association dedicated to meaningful progress.”
“As the leader of our advocacy efforts, Chris Morton has been the public voice of our industry in Washington,” said Richard Welshons president of ALTA. “He brings the right mix of experience, vision and steady leadership to guide ALTA. We thank Diane Tomb for her years of service and wish her well in future endeavors.”
