Land Title Guarantee Company

Exceptional service and good title work. I’ve used Land Title for 14 years. I especially use the DTC and Cherry Creek locations. The company is heading towards completely electronic. The other reviews don’t know that this hasn’t been possible before. The company has a «Whatever it takes,» outlook — which is refreshing and awesome. It’s important to remember that glitches do happen in most transactions and then move on. NO title companies will accept Cash anymore and wires are frequently required because of concern about fraud with Cashier’s checks and counterfeit money. Sad but true.

+ Smooth closing.
+ Pleasant clerk.
+ Pleasant office environment.
+ Efficient.
— Won’t do electronic documents. I hate signing paper. Up until the closing, every document we signed over the 7 month selling process was electronic.
— Tried to sneak in a «standard $ 250 charge» even though our contract with our seller’s agent struck that charge. Land Title clerks were not paying attention.
— Won’t accept cash. I so wanted to buy a house with CASH.
The problem with Land Title is that YOU (buyer/​seller) are officially their customer, but YOU only use their service once every 10 years. So, they don’t give a crap about YOU. All their energy is directed at pleasing the real estate agents.

I bought a house, and used Land Title for the closing. After the closing I find out that their was a covenant on the place that greatly reduced its value, which has resulted in a lawsuit that will take a while and cost a lot. Land Title failed to point out this information in the title work as they rushed through the details. And yes, my Realtor screwed up as well, but I relied on Land title to assure me the title was clean, and they did not. The closers knew about this covenant as they discovered it, but allowed the closing to happen without mention. When I asked them why they did not mention it, their legal counsel Peter gave me some BS about that detail not being part of their responsibility.
If I cannot rely on the title company, why am I paying them???
In summary, do not use this company. I am going through hell because of their poor service, and in return they shirked their duties and fail to be responsible
