Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements	Basis of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements CoreLogic, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively "we", "us" or "our"), is a leading global property information, analytics and data-enabled solutions provider operating in North America, Western Europe and Asia Pacific. Our combined data from public, contributory and proprietary sources provides detailed coverage of property, mortgages and other encumbrances, consumer credit, tenancy, location, hazard risk and related performance information. The markets we serve include real estate and mortgage finance, insurance, capital markets and the public sector. We deliver value to clients through unique data, analytics, work flow technology, advisory and managed solutions. Clients rely on us to help identify and manage growth opportunities, improve performance and mitigate risk. Our condensed consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The 2015 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 . Interim financial information does not require the inclusion of all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 . The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any future periods. Client Concentration We generate the majority of our revenues from clients with operations in the U.S. residential real estate, mortgage origination and mortgage servicing markets. Approximately 43.0% and 38.0% of our operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and approximately 43.0% and 34.0% of our operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, were generated from our ten largest clients, who consist of the largest U.S. mortgage originators and servicers. Two of our clients accounted for approximately 15.0% and 11.0% of our operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , and approximately 14.0% and 12.0% of our operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . No client accounted for 10.0% or more of our operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 . Out-of-Period Adjustment During the first quarter of 2015, we identified an error which overstated our interest expense by $5.2 million ( $3.1 million , net of tax), reflected within continuing operations, for the year ended December 31, 2014. We recorded an out-of-period adjustment to correct the error in the quarter ended March 31, 2015, which increased basic and diluted net income per share by $0.03 . We assessed the materiality of this error and concluded the error was not material to the results of operations or financial condition for the prior annual or interim periods. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Specifically, foreign currency translation adjustments, amounts related to supplemental benefit plans, unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap transactions and unrealized gains and losses on investment are recorded in other comprehensive income/(loss). The following table shows the components of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 : 2016 2015 Cumulative foreign currency translation $ (109,117 ) $ (114,427 ) Cumulative supplemental benefit plans (3,753 ) (3,540 ) Net unrecognized losses on interest rate swap (5,737 ) (2,699 ) Net unrealized gains on marketable securities 463 550 Accumulated other comprehensive loss $ (118,144 ) $ (120,116 ) Marketable Securities Debt securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in obligations of various corporations and mortgage-backed securities. Equity securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in marketable common and preferred stock. We classify our publicly traded debt and equity securities as available-for-sale and carry them at fair value with unrealized gains or losses classified as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , our marketable securities consisted primarily of investments in preferred stock of $22.6 million and $22.7 million , respectively. There were no gains or losses recognized on sales of marketable securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 . Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests for which there is a contractual requirement for purchasing the interest are included as a liability of NZD $27.8 million , or $19.0 million , in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 . In January 2016, we acquired the remaining 40.0% interest in New Zealand-based Property IQ Ltd. ("PIQ") and settled the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest. See Note 12 - Acquisitions for further discussion. Tax Escrow Disbursement Arrangements We administer tax escrow disbursements as a service to our clients in connection with our tax services business. These deposits are maintained in segregated accounts for the benefit of our clients. Tax escrow deposits totaled $804.9 million as of June 30, 2016 and $340.3 million as of December 31, 2015 . Because these deposits are held on behalf of our clients, they are not our funds and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. These deposits generally remain in the accounts for a period of two to five business days and we invest the funds in a highly-rated, liquid investment, such as bank deposit products or AAA-rated money market funds. We earn interest income or earnings credits from these investments and bear the risk of any losses. However, we have not historically incurred any investment losses and do not anticipate incurring any future investment losses. As a result, we do not maintain any reserves for losses in value of these investments. Under our contracts with our clients, if we make a payment in error or fail to pay a taxing authority when a payment is due, we could be held liable to our clients for all or part of the financial loss they suffer as a result of our act or omission. We maintained claim reserves relating to incorrect disposition of assets of $19.3 million and $21.2 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which is reflected in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other liabilities. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for accounting of credit losses affecting the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Entities will be required to use a new forward-looking current expected credit loss model for trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, which will generally lead to an earlier recognition of loss allowances. Entities will recognize losses on available-for-sale debt securities as allowances rather than a reduction in amortized cost of the security while the measurement process of this loss does not change. Disclosure requirements are expanded regarding an entity’s assumptions, models and methods of estimations of the allowance. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify some provisions in stock compensation accounting. The accounting for income taxes allows all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recognized through income tax expense. The statement of cash flows presentation of excess tax benefits should be classified with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. An entity may also make an entity-wide election to either continue estimating the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures as they occur. The requirements to qualify for equity classification permits tax withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the applicable jurisdictions. Lastly, payments of cash by an employer for tax-withholding purposes, when directly withholding shares, are classified as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance on equity method accounting related to joint venture investments. The standard eliminates the requirement to retroactively adopt the equity method of accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership or degree of influence related to an investment. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance on derivatives and hedging. The standard clarifies the four-step decision sequence required for assessing whether contingent put and call options that can speed up the payment for a debt instrument’s principal are clearly and closely related to the debt to which they are attached. The standard also clarifies that provided all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met, a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument does not in itself disqualify designation of the hedge. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on lease accounting. The standard requires all leases in excess of 12-months to be recognized on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not changed significantly from prior GAAP. For operating leases, a lessee is required to 1) recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payment, 2) recognize a single lease cost over the lease term generally on a straight-line basis, and 3) classify all cash payments within operating activities on the cash flow statement. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities. The standard does not apply to equity method investments or investments in consolidated subsidiaries. The update provides that equity investments with readily determinable values be measured at fair value and changes in the fair value flow through net income. These changes historically have run through other comprehensive income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values have the option to be measured at fair value or at cost adjusted for changes in observable prices minus impairment. Changes in either method are also recognized in net income. The standard requires a qualitative assessment of impairment indicators at each reporting period. For financial liabilities, entities that elect the fair value option must recognize the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income rather than net income. Lastly, regarding deferred tax assets, the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset will need to be assessed related to available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as any related valuation allowance, to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years and earlier adoption is permitted. As of March 31, 2015, we elected early adoption on a prospective basis and, as of June 30, 2016 , we presented $2.2 million of deferred income tax assets, long term and $101.9 million of deferred income tax liabilities, long term in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Investments are carried at the cost of acquisition, including subsequent capital contributions and loans from us, plus our equity in undistributed earnings or losses since inception of the investment. One of our subsidiaries previously owned a 50.1% interest in RELS LLC ("RELS"), a provider of appraisals and appraisal management services used in connection with mortgage loan originations. This investment contributed 85.9% and 84.9% of our total equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. We acquired the remaining interest in RELS in December 2015. See Note 12 - Acquisitions for further discussion. The following summarizes the financial information for this investment (assuming 100% ownership interest): For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended (in thousands) June 30, 2015 June 30, 2015 Statements of income Total revenues $ 69,759 $ 128,205 Expenses and other 56,806 105,068 Net income attributable to RELS LLC $ 12,953 $ 23,137 CoreLogic equity in earnings of affiliate $ 6,489 $ 11,592 We recorded equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax of $0.1 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and equity in losses of affiliates, net of tax of less than $0.1 million and equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax of $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively.

Senior Notes In May 2011, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due 2021 (the "Notes"). In July 2016, we completed the redemption of all outstanding balances under the Notes. See Note 15 - Subsequent Events for further discussion. Prior to redemption, the Notes were guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of our direct and indirect subsidiaries that guarantee our Credit Agreement (defined below). Credit Agreement In April 2015, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and other financial institutions. As of June 30, 2016 , the Credit Agreement provided for an $850.0 million five-year term loan facility (the "Term Facility") and a $550.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility"). The Revolving Facility included a $100.0 million multicurrency revolving sub-facility and a $50.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Credit Agreement also provided for the ability to increase the Term Facility and Revolving Facility by up to $750.0 million in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2016 , we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the Credit Agreement. In July 2016, effective June 2016, we amended our Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and other financial institutions, which allowed us to complete $525.0 million of incremental term loan borrowings. See Note 15 - Subsequent Events for further discussion. The Term Facility matures and the Revolving Facility expires on April 2020. Debt Issuance Costs In connection with the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement in 2015, we incurred approximately $6.5 million of debt issuance costs of which $0.4 million were expensed in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015. We capitalized the remaining $6.1 million of debt issuance costs within long-term debt, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, and will amortize these costs over the term of the Credit Agreement. When we amended and restated the Credit Agreement in 2015, we had unamortized costs of $14.8 million related to previously recorded debt issuance costs, which we will amortize over the term of the Credit Agreement. In connection with the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement, during the six months ended June 30, 2015, we wrote-off $1.6 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. 7.55% Senior Debentures In April 1998, we issued $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.55% senior debentures due 2028. In April 2010, in anticipation of the spin-off of our financial services businesses into a new, publicly-traded, New York Stock Exchange-listed company called First American Financial Corporation ("FAFC") in June 2010 ("Separation"), we commenced a cash tender offer for these debentures and also solicited consent from the holders thereof to expressly affirm that the Separation would not conflict with the terms of the debentures. See Note 11 - Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies for further discussion on the Separation. In April 2010, we announced that valid consents were tendered representing over 50.0% of the outstanding debentures. Accordingly, we received the requisite approvals from debenture holders and amended the related indentures. The indentures governing these debentures, as amended, contain limited restrictions on the Company. Interest Rate Swaps In May 2014, we entered into amortizing interest rate swap transactions ("Swaps"). The Swaps became effective in December 2014 and terminate in March 2019. The Swaps are for an initial notional balance of $500.0 million , with a fixed interest rate of 1.57% , and amortize quarterly by $12.5 million through December 31, 2017 and $25.0 million through December 31, 2018, with a remaining notional amount of $250.0 million . We entered into the Swaps in order to convert a portion of our interest rate exposure on the Term Facility floating rate borrowings from variable to fixed. We have designated the Swaps as cash flow hedges. The estimated fair value of these cash flow hedges resulted in a liability of $9.3 million and $4.4 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which is included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other liabilities. Unrealized losses of $0.4 million (net of $0.3 million in deferred taxes) and unrealized gains of $1.1 million (net of $0.7 million in deferred taxes) for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and unrealized losses of $3.0 million (net of $1.9 million in deferred taxes) and $1.1 million (net of $0.7 million in deferred taxes) for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, were recognized in other comprehensive (loss)/income related to the Swaps.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The effective income tax rate for income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before equity in earnings of affiliates and income taxes was 33.5% and 33.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and 34.7% and 32.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 when compared to 2015 , the increase in the effective tax rate was due to non-recurring favorable discrete items occurring in 2015, partially offset by current year favorable rate reductions related to federal research credits being permanently enacted, the release of a capital loss valuation allowance related to a capital gain, a current year favorable discrete item related to prior year uncertain foreign tax benefits and a current year unfavorable discrete item from acquisition-related costs. Income taxes included in equity in earnings of affiliates were $0.3 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and $0.4 million and $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. For the purpose of segment reporting, these amounts are included in corporate and therefore not reflected in our reportable segments. We are currently under examination for the years 2005 to 2011 by the U.S. federal and various state taxing authorities. It is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit with respect to certain unrecognized tax positions could significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. We estimate the unrecognized tax benefit could decrease by up to $21.5 million within the next twelve months. The estimated change is primarily related to IRS audits, subject to the FAFC indemnification, and may have minimal impact to net income. See Note 11 - Litigation and Regulatory Contingencies for further discussion on FAFC.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable. The market approach is applied for recurring fair value measurements and endeavors to utilize the best available information. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value balances are classified based on the observability of those inputs. A fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). Level 2 measurements utilize observable inputs in markets other than active markets. In estimating the fair value of the financial instruments presented, we used the following methods and assumptions: Cash and cash equivalents For cash and cash equivalents, we believe that the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Restricted cash Restricted cash is comprised of certificates of deposit that are pledged for various letters of credit. We deem the carrying value to be a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the nature of these instruments. Marketable securities Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are valued using quoted prices in active markets. Contingent consideration The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which relies on significant assumption and estimates including discount rates and future market conditions, among others. Long-term debt The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on the current rates available to us for similar debt of the same remaining maturities and consideration of our default and credit risk. Interest rate swap agreements The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was estimated based on market-value quotes received from the counterparties to the agreements. The fair values of our financial instruments as of June 30, 2016 are presented in the following table: Fair Value Measurements Using (in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Financial Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 72,367 $ — $ — $ 72,367 Restricted cash — 11,009 — 11,009 Marketable securities 22,570 — — 22,570 Total Financial Assets $ 94,937 $ 11,009 $ — $ 105,946 Financial Liabilities: Contingent consideration $ — $ — $ 8,900 $ 8,900 Total debt — 1,677,100 — 1,677,100 Total Financial Liabilities $ — $ 1,677,100 $ 8,900 $ 1,686,000 Derivatives: Liability for interest rate swap agreements $ — $ 9,291 $ — $ 9,291 The fair values of our financial instruments as of December 31, 2015 are presented in the following table: Fair Value Measurements Using (in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Fair Value Financial Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 99,090 $ — $ 99,090 Restricted cash — 10,926 10,926 Marketable securities 22,709 — 22,709 Total Financial Assets $ 121,799 $ 10,926 $ 132,725 Financial Liabilities: Total debt $ — $ 1,315,473 $ 1,315,473 Derivatives: Liability for interest rate swap agreements $ — $ 4,370 $ 4,370 There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 .

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation We currently issue equity awards under the Amended and Restated CoreLogic, Inc. 2011 Performance Incentive Plan, which was initially approved by our stockholders at our Annual Meeting held on May 19, 2011 with an amendment and restatement approved by our stockholders at our Annual Meeting held on July 29, 2014 (the “Plan”). The Plan includes the ability to grant RSUs, PBRSUs and stock options. The Plan provides for up to 21,909,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be available for award grants. Prior to the approval of the Plan, we issued share-based awards under the CoreLogic, Inc. 2006 Incentive Plan. We primarily utilize RSUs and PBRSUs as our share-based compensation instruments for employees and directors. The fair value of any share-based compensation instrument grant is based on the market value of our shares on the date of grant and is recognized as compensation expense over its vesting period. Restricted Stock Units For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , we awarded 942,973 and 939,354 RSUs, respectively, with an estimated grant-date fair value of $32.7 million and $33.2 million , respectively. The majority of the RSU awards will vest ratably over three years from their grant date. RSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows: Number of Weighted-Average Grant-Date (in thousands, except weighted-average fair value prices) Shares Fair Value Unvested RSUs outstanding at December 31, 2015 1,537 $ 32.92 RSUs granted 943 $ 34.68 RSUs vested (690 ) $ 32.57 RSUs forfeited (57 ) $ 34.48 Unvested RSUs outstanding at June 30, 2016 1,733 $ 33.96 As of June 30, 2016 , there was $43.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years . The fair value of RSUs is based on the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , we awarded 278,799 and 222,788 PBRSUs, respectively, with an estimated grant-date fair value of $9.8 million and $7.6 million , respectively. These awards are subject to service-based, performance-based and market-based vesting conditions. For the PBRSUs awarded during the six months ended June 30, 2016 , the performance period is from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018 and the performance metric is adjusted earnings per share and market-based conditions. Subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria, the majority of the 2016 awards will vest on December 31, 2018. The performance period for the PBRSUs awarded during the six months ended June 30, 2015 is from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017 and the performance metric is adjusted earnings per share and market-based conditions. Subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria, the majority of the 2015 awards will vest on December 31, 2017. The fair values of the 2016 and 2015 awards were estimated using Monte-Carlo simulation with the following weighted-average assumptions: For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 2015 Expected dividend yield — % — % Risk-free interest rate (1) 0.99 % 0.93 % Expected volatility (2) 25.12 % 24.01 % Average total stockholder return (2) 1.48 % 8.37 % (1) The risk-free interest rate for the periods within the contractual term of the PBRSUs is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. (2) The expected volatility and average total stockholder return are measures of the amount by which a stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate based primarily on our and our peers' historical data. PBRSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows: Number of Weighted-Average Grant-Date (in thousands, except weighted-average fair value prices) Shares Fair Value Unvested PBRSUs outstanding at December 31, 2015 659 $ 29.15 PBRSUs granted 279 $ 35.30 PBRSUs vested (88 ) $ 26.04 PBRSUs forfeited (91 ) $ 19.50 Unvested PBRSUs outstanding at June 30, 2016 758 $ 34.10 As of June 30, 2016 , there was $23.0 million of total unrecog n ized compensation cost related to unvested PBRSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The fair value of PBRSUs is based on the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Stock Options Prior to 2015, we issued stock options as incentive compensation for certain employees. Option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows: (in thousands, except weighted-average price) Number of Shares Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term Aggregate Intrinsic Value Options outstanding at December 31, 2015 1,826 $ 21.33 Options exercised (251 ) $ 22.03 Options outstanding at June 30, 2016 1,575 $ 21.22 5.0 $ 27,152 Options vested and expected to vest at June 30, 2016 1,571 $ 21.20 5.0 $ 27,136 Options exercisable at June 30, 2016 1,495 $ 20.68 4.9 $ 26,618 As of June 30, 2016 , there was $0.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 9 months . The intrinsic value of options exercised was $3.2 million and $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. This intrinsic value represents the difference between the fair market value of our common stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of each option. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The employee stock purchase plan allows eligible employees to purchase our common stock at 85.0% of the lesser of the closing price on the first day or the last day of each quarter. Our employee stock purchase plan was approved by our stockholders at our 2012 annual meeting of stockholders and the first offering period commenced in October 2012. We recognized an expense for the amount equal to the estimated fair value of the discount during each offering period. The following table sets forth the stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 .

With respect to matters where we have determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, we have recorded a liability representing our best estimate of the financial exposure based on known facts. While the ultimate disposition of each such audit, investigation or lawsuit is not yet determinable, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, we do not believe there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss exceeding amounts already accrued may be incurred. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters involves judgments, estimates and inherent uncertainties. The actual outcome of such matters could differ materially from management’s estimates. We record expenses for legal fees as incurred. Separation Following the Separation, we are responsible for a portion of FAFC's contingent and other corporate liabilities. In the Separation and Distribution Agreement we entered into in connection with the Separation (the "Separation and Distribution Agreement"), we agreed with FAFC to share equally in the cost of resolution of a small number of corporate-level lawsuits, including certain consolidated securities litigation matters from which we have since been dropped. There were no liabilities incurred in connection with the consolidated securities matters. Responsibility to manage each case has been assigned to either FAFC or us, with the managing party required to update the other party regularly and consult with the other party prior to certain important decisions, such as settlement. The managing party will also have primary responsibility for determining the ultimate total liability, if any, related to the applicable case. We will record our share of any such liability when the responsible party determines a reserve is necessary. At June 30, 2016 , no reserves were considered necessary. In addition, the Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of our predecessor, The First American Corporation's ("FAC") financial services business, with FAFC and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of FAC's information solutions business with us. Specifically, each party will, and will cause its subsidiaries and affiliates to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party, its respective affiliates and subsidiaries and each of its respective officers, directors, employees and agents for any losses arising out of or otherwise in connection with the liabilities each such party assumed or retained pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement; and any breach by such party of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Acquisitions In April 2016, we completed the acquisition of FNC for up to $475.0 million , with $400.0 million in cash paid at closing, subject to certain closing adjustments, and up to $75.0 million to be paid in cash in 2018, contingent upon the achievement of certain revenue targets in fiscal 2017. We fair-valued the contingent payment using the Monte Carlo simulation model and preliminarily recorded $8.0 million as contingent consideration. FNC is a leading provider of real estate collateral information technology and solutions that automates property appraisal ordering, tracking, documentation and review for lender compliance with government regulations and is included as a component of our PI reporting segment. The acquisition continues to expand our property valuation capabilities. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using a variety of valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, which included significant unobservable inputs. The purchase price allocation is subject to change based on our final determination of fair value in connection with intangible assets and working capital matters.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Client Concentration	Client Concentration We generate the majority of our revenues from clients with operations in the U.S. residential real estate, mortgage origination and mortgage servicing markets.
Comprehensive Income	Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Specifically, foreign currency translation adjustments, amounts related to supplemental benefit plans, unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap transactions and unrealized gains and losses on investment are recorded in other comprehensive income/(loss).
Marketable Securities	Marketable Securities Debt securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in obligations of various corporations and mortgage-backed securities. Equity securities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of investments in marketable common and preferred stock. We classify our publicly traded debt and equity securities as available-for-sale and carry them at fair value with unrealized gains or losses classified as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest	Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests for which there is a contractual requirement for purchasing the interest are included as a liability of NZD $27.8 million , or $19.0 million , in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 . In January 2016, we acquired the remaining 40.0% interest in New Zealand-based Property IQ Ltd. ("PIQ") and settled the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest. See Note 12 - Acquisitions for further discussion.
Tax Escrow Disbursement Arrangements	Tax Escrow Disbursement Arrangements We administer tax escrow disbursements as a service to our clients in connection with our tax services business. These deposits are maintained in segregated accounts for the benefit of our clients. Tax escrow deposits totaled $804.9 million as of June 30, 2016 and $340.3 million as of December 31, 2015 . Because these deposits are held on behalf of our clients, they are not our funds and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. These deposits generally remain in the accounts for a period of two to five business days and we invest the funds in a highly-rated, liquid investment, such as bank deposit products or AAA-rated money market funds. We earn interest income or earnings credits from these investments and bear the risk of any losses. However, we have not historically incurred any investment losses and do not anticipate incurring any future investment losses. As a result, we do not maintain any reserves for losses in value of these investments. Under our contracts with our clients, if we make a payment in error or fail to pay a taxing authority when a payment is due, we could be held liable to our clients for all or part of the financial loss they suffer as a result of our act or omission. We maintained claim reserves relating to incorrect disposition of assets of $19.3 million and $21.2 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which is reflected in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other liabilities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for accounting of credit losses affecting the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Entities will be required to use a new forward-looking current expected credit loss model for trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, which will generally lead to an earlier recognition of loss allowances. Entities will recognize losses on available-for-sale debt securities as allowances rather than a reduction in amortized cost of the security while the measurement process of this loss does not change. Disclosure requirements are expanded regarding an entity’s assumptions, models and methods of estimations of the allowance. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify some provisions in stock compensation accounting. The accounting for income taxes allows all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recognized through income tax expense. The statement of cash flows presentation of excess tax benefits should be classified with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. An entity may also make an entity-wide election to either continue estimating the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures as they occur. The requirements to qualify for equity classification permits tax withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the applicable jurisdictions. Lastly, payments of cash by an employer for tax-withholding purposes, when directly withholding shares, are classified as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance on equity method accounting related to joint venture investments. The standard eliminates the requirement to retroactively adopt the equity method of accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership or degree of influence related to an investment. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance on derivatives and hedging. The standard clarifies the four-step decision sequence required for assessing whether contingent put and call options that can speed up the payment for a debt instrument’s principal are clearly and closely related to the debt to which they are attached. The standard also clarifies that provided all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met, a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument does not in itself disqualify designation of the hedge. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on lease accounting. The standard requires all leases in excess of 12-months to be recognized on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not changed significantly from prior GAAP. For operating leases, a lessee is required to 1) recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payment, 2) recognize a single lease cost over the lease term generally on a straight-line basis, and 3) classify all cash payments within operating activities on the cash flow statement. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities. The standard does not apply to equity method investments or investments in consolidated subsidiaries. The update provides that equity investments with readily determinable values be measured at fair value and changes in the fair value flow through net income. These changes historically have run through other comprehensive income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values have the option to be measured at fair value or at cost adjusted for changes in observable prices minus impairment. Changes in either method are also recognized in net income. The standard requires a qualitative assessment of impairment indicators at each reporting period. For financial liabilities, entities that elect the fair value option must recognize the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income rather than net income. Lastly, regarding deferred tax assets, the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset will need to be assessed related to available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted but we do not anticipate electing early adoption. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as any related valuation allowance, to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years and earlier adoption is permitted.
