First American Data & Analytics Executive Bill Rice Named a 2021 HousingWire Insider Award Winner

First American Data & Analytics, a division of First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF) and a leading global provider of property and ownership data and advanced analytic solutions, announced today that Bill Rice, vice president of data acquisition and fulfillment, was named among the winners of HousingWire’s 2021 HW Insider awards, which recognizes 100 operational executives in housing who are driving their companies and clients forward. The 2021 HW Insiders were chosen by HousingWire’s selection committee based on their vital and dynamic contributions to their companies and the industry as a whole.

“Bill’s keen insight, vast experience developing data solutions and his knowledge of data content has made him a trusted resource for customers. He relishes the opportunity to work directly with customers and prospects to help them optimize the value of First American’s industry-leading datasets,” said Robert Karraa, president of First American Data & Analytics. “Bill’s expertise is an important differentiator for us and contributes to the superior level of customer service First American offers.”

Rice was recognized for his integral role in building the mortgage industry’s largest, most comprehensive property and ownership characteristic datasets, and for his leadership of First American’s data-as-a-service (DaaS) initiative that helped produce a data distribution system unmatched in the marketplace. Rice led the drive to make First American’s data assets available through cloud delivery channels, such as the Snowflake® Data Marketplace, reducing the time, cost and overall effort of data acquisition. This effort also enables clients, particularly PropTech companies, to consume and work with First American’s data where they work – in the cloud.

“The winners of our Insiders award are an incredible group of doers that we're proud to recognize for their essential contributions to their companies and the larger mortgage and real estate ecosystem,” said Sarah Wheeler, editor-in-chief of HousingWire. “Everyone on this year's list is a crucial part of their company's success and we're honored to give them the spotlight.”
