Accessible location, polite and courteous staff. Small documentation delays - Waited on other party to sign and had to request digital copy of paperwork.

Nobody returned calls and very rarely answered the phone. Told me was cleared to close then came back with more documents causing my close to be pushed back. Costing me money due to having to reschedule movers. Then again stated was cleared to close then came back stating the POS was not Valid. Completely disorganized. Then when stating all documents were sent the agent kept interrupting me and over talking me to the point I just hung up and called my realtor. I would NEVER recommend this title company to anyone.

Compared to the closing I just had from selling my home using a different title company First American didn't hold a candle to them. I did not have a positive experience interacting with the CSR or person in charge of my file. They could really use some training from Fidelity National. I would not recommend First American to anyone.

They failed to pay my homeowners insurance when it was supposed to have been paid. I also believe they did not send documents to the hoa company

Should have asked if the buyers would like to take a picture with a key or not ? We were not asked .

I had little to no communication with First American. Most information I received was through a third party, the builder. It made me feel like the title company was not really there to support me. Additionally, attempts to reach out after our closing for a digital copy of our closing documents were met with absolute silence. There was no acknowledgement of my attempt to communicate. I was hurried through the closing process. If I am going to be scheduled for a closing, time should be given to allowing me to review the documents during the process. I was told that I should’ve seen the documents prior. The problem was that there was a great amount of latency from the request for information between my mortgage officer and First American so I didn’t receive finalized copies, presumably, until the closing date and was rushed to sign. Again, my time is just as precious and telling me I can come back 5 hours later to conclude is not acceptable. If you’re going to rush me through the process, at least get me all the documents a couple of days prior to my scheduled closing for review.

I believe the delay in the actual signing of the Closing disclosure papers was due to my device, a Android cell phone, was incompatible with the Notorize app. So, I was unable to preview and pre-eSign a bulk of the paperwork. All signing was done the "old fashioned" way, in pen at the office.

I was not given information about my HOA, POC's. I still don't know what I need to register for my warranties. My paperwork was not given to me in a way for me to easily filter important stuff either. I closed in your office not at my house..
