Just as most people state below, there are many problems up to the point of sale. Some of these problems are ones that can be easily fixed, but the workers at New House Title just sit and wait for problems to resolve themselves. Which means you have to do the title work. Become familiar with the online court document system in your county. In my case, the final foreclosure document was not posted online by the courts. New House Title said they put in a call to the courts to ask for it to be posted. They told us that they had first priority with the courts and that it wouldn't help for us to try to get the document ourselves. This dragged on for days and caused one of the closing dates to be missed. I called the courts myself and the document was posted within a few hours of my call. If I hadn't called and corrected this myself, we probably never would have closed. We had the same issue with the HOA. They kept saying they needed something from the HOA. The HOA said that the document New House Title wanted did not exist. My realtor finally got New House Title to understand that there was no extra document. If you want to close on a house with New House Title, you and your realtor will have to do a good bit of their work.
