ALTA is the national trade association of the land title insurance industry. According to ALTA’s website, the NTP designation “recognizes the land title professionals who have demonstrated the knowledge, experience, and dedication essential to the safe and efficient transfer of real property.” Doug is currently one of just 35 individuals who have earned an NTP designation.
Doug has worked in the land title insurance industry for over 40 years. He is the founder and President of D. Bello Associates, which has served the title industry under Bello’s leadership for over 25 years. Prior to D. Bello Associates he has had multiple positions within the title industry, most notably as president of Title Records, Inc, the largest title plant in the United States throughout the 1980’s.
Doug’s knowledge of title is unquestioned. He’s consulted for a federal judge on matters of land record organization, and traveled to Russia to offer guidance on land reform and privatization as part of the new Perestroika.
Doug has a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California Santa Barbara, and an MBA from Pepperdine University.
