Anthea Higgins

Settlement Processor

Anthea Higgins is a Settlement Processor at Federal Title & Escrow Company, where she plays a vital role in guiding transactions from contract to closing with care, precision, and professionalism. Anthea is deeply motivated by the opportunity to help people every day and takes pride in supporting buyers, sellers, agents, lenders, and attorneys as they work together toward a successful and positive settlement experience.

Anthea primarily works out of Federal Title’s Potomac, Maryland office and joined the company in 2020. After spending many years raising her children at home, she brought to Federal Title a strong sense of organization, patience, and client service—qualities that translate seamlessly into the settlement process. Her ability to manage details while maintaining a calm, supportive presence makes her a trusted point of contact for all parties involved in a transaction.

Anthea’s exposure to the title insurance industry began earlier in her career, when she spent several summers in college working for a settlement attorney. That early experience provided a practical foundation in real estate settlements and sparked a lasting interest in the field.

She earned her Bachelor of Arts from Bucknell University, where she double majored in International Relations and Spanish, and later received her Master of Business Administration from Duke University. A native of Bethesda, Maryland, Anthea brings both strong analytical skills and a global perspective to her work.

Outside of the office, Anthea enjoys cooking and staying active. She is an avid tennis player and also enjoys pickleball. At home, her family enthusiastically supports the Washington Nationals, the Washington Capitals, and the Baltimore Ravens.
