Ronnie started his first company at 22. Before that, he was buying and selling cars in high school — which tells you everything you need to know about how he thinks about deals.

He spent four decades building communities across Greater Houston — from raw land to subdivisions, from construction to closings. When he founded Great American Title, he brought that same hands-on standard to every transaction.

Today GATCO operates 8 offices across the Houston metro, licensed in 38 counties, underwritten by Stewart Title. The company Ronnie built on a handshake philosophy has the infrastructure of a major player — without losing what made it great.
