Ticor Title Company

I had no choice in using Ticor for my house purchase, as the seller chose the company.
My first experience with them was when I dropped off my deposit. I told the girl I would be there at 4:00. I arrived shortly before my scheduled time and was told that she was gone. I waited about 10 minutes until another lady came out. I wrote the check and asked her to hold it till the next day so I could transfer funds. She informed me that they could not hold the check. She also informed me that the last transaction of the day was at 4:00 (it was only a couple of minutes before 4 at this point). I asked if I could wait until after 4, then hand over the check. She continued to go on and on about how she could not hold the check. I asked if handing her the check in two minutes (after the last transaction of the day) would be a solution. She said it would, but continued to tell me that she could not hold the check. She abruptly walked away. I gave the check to the receptionist at 4:01 and she had to walk it back to her office. I was trying to be solution oriented and all she wanted to do was argue.
This initial experience pretty much carried through the entire month. Each time I talked to someone on the phone, I felt like I was bothering them. Today when I went in to sign my final paperwork, the girl from Ticor was even rude to the notary. She wasn’t rude to me, she just completely ignored me and pretended like I wasn’t there. Didn’t even look at me and walked away as I exited the office.
The only decent person I encountered at Ticor was the receptionist. Poor girl! I hat to see the way they treat her.
Rudest bunch of people I’ve ever met. I hope they at least got the paperwork correct.

Avoid at all costs. If forced to use, get title insurance. Sloppy and slipshod in all aspects.

I ended up with Ticor Title, in La Mesa, as the escrow company for a property I recently bought. Dealing with them was simply amazing. Fast, professional, and without one issue. I requested a seven day escrow and they got it closed correctly and on-​time. If you’re fortunate enough to end up with (or choose) this company for your escrow needs, you’ll be in great hands with Escrow Officer Michelle Woodring. Thanks, Ticor and Michelle!
