I didn't have a chance to judge your services because I received a message saying that my requested title could not be searched. I will say, the website is easy to navigate. I'm not sure how many who use these services are laymen, but I would suggest adding a detailed explanation of each service. I had to Google the difference between each type of title search, but I might just be more uninformed than the average person, or I just didn't see it on your website
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The deeds were a very reasonable price. However, it was made to seem like it was part of Jefferson County, and I didn't love the deceptiveness.
