Old Republic Title Company

I had no choice in the matter due to the contract but ultimately I have no complaints with the result. Efficient.

Efficient and reliable.

Just okay - contacts were friendly and responsive, but interacting via their email is difficult (adds random addresses that bounce on reply). Initial wire from fidelity couldn't be found because wire department didn't know what fidelity wires looked like (don't they do this all day?) which was a little stressful. Main issue was at the end they spelled my SO's name wrong on the deed even though we had signed and written our names 20 times on the document. This required us coming into the office for a notarized deed correction which was a pain. Not a lot of options in this market, and the entire mortgage process is really inefficient so doubt others are much better. In the end it worked out.

What can I say about the two Escrow Officers I worked with---EXCEPTIONAL, Pleasant and Prompt When an Escrow Officer responds to your email regarding transaction, they CARE! When an Escrow Officer(s) keeps you informed of what's happening with the transactions, they CARE! I was always kept in the loop of what's needed, date/time, next step in the process When an Escrow Officer reaches out to you regarding needed information and wants to see your transaction close, they CARE! Did I mention, Close of Escrow at the Speed of Light....YEEESSSS! Many Many Thanks to the Escrow Officers, YL and IT Caroline Barnett Brentwood, CA

Mia McDowell was a great escrow agent - she was very responsive and stayed closely connected with my loan agent to make sure everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend her.

Just another Title Company that I had no choice but to deal with. Title company in general from my experience has zero customer service to buyers. They act as if they're doing a favor to the buyers.

Old Republic did not reach out to us to schedule an appointment for closing, or let us know the closing costs. Our real estate agent had to get us all of this info when he realized that. Because of that we didn't know when we'd close or how much the fees would be until 48 hours beforehand. We got all the info during a weekend, so we were barely able to get the checks and everything ready.

ORTC made a couple of critical mistakes, which thankfully my agent and I caught -- like sending wiring instructions for my down payment from the wrong person's files. They ultimately got the deal done but they needed some hand-holding. When it came time to close, they provided convenient signing options for me.

Maia was personable was very helpful with the closing of our property.

I didn't end up purchasing the property, so I didn't go through the whole process with Old Republic, but they were prompt and professional when we interacted, and I'd be happy to use them again the next time around.

We were pretty difficult customers so I appreciate Maia for dealing with us professionally. Real Estate is SO antiquated that many of the line items on your closing statement won't make any sense. That's not Old Republic's responsibility however and they did their best to help us with our transaction. In retrospect, they're pretty great!

The transaction was smooth, as expected from a title company. Certainly met my expectations.

Efficient and friendly!
