Old Republic Title Company

Could not agree more with what other folks are saying. I have a heater wall unit that was apparently bent and leaking gas. I have never touched this unit, or done any damage to it. They denied my claim to have it replaced because the damage was caused by «…a human, animal or pest.» What else causes damage??? Isn’t that the point of having coverage??? Now I have to pay over $ 1,000 out of pocket after paying their stupid $ 60 fee. Again, I never touched this unit– the damage was not done by me. And by the way the tech described the damage to me, I have no idea how a human, animal or pest would bend an entire frame beyond repair.
They also never notified me that my claim was denied– I called them and was told by someone who was very rude and short. Not helpful at all.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! I had no choice– the person that sold me my home selected them. I will never use them again. Stay away!!!

Not a fan of the Stockton office. We have done business with Old Republic in Capitola and they were knowledgeable and friendly. I’m not sure what is happening in this office, however both women we saw were not very friendly. We also had some questions and they did not seem confident in their responses. The transaction seemed a bit awkward. Hopefully, our paperwork will be handled correctly and efficiently.

I have done business with Old Republic hundreds of time over the past 20 + years. They are great people who are responsive, honest with the utmost integrity. Everyone is knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with.

When selling my house, I did not have an opinion as to which title company we chose. I let my Realtor make this decision with no input from me. This was the wrong choice. Amber and Robin from Old Republic Title Company handled my escrow. They were both polite and professional when dealing with the signing process. However, they failed to follow through on parts of the paperwork aspect (which is their entire job). Four days ago I learned the paperwork was not processed to pay the termite inspection. This means apparently I’m in charge of handling this. This fact was annoying, but I do understand minor details might be neglected. Subsequently I learned Old Republic Title Company failed to send my mortgage company a forwarding address. I had to go through the process of placing a stop payment on my impound check and ask for one to be reissued. According to my mortgage company, I might not received these funds until after the new year. I spoke to Pamela who is over Amber and Robin. She was very kind and apologized for the misunderstanding between the Title Company and my Realtor causing the termite inspection to not be paid. She had no explanation as to why Robin and Amber neglected to give my forwarding address to the mortgage company, even though I requested this during the signing process. At this time Pamela is still looking into it.
Bottom line… Everyone I dealt with at Old Republic Title Company was very polite and spoke very professionally. However, they are paid to file paperwork. Because paperwork was not filed appropriately in my case, I have had to go and handle some of the paperwork myself and will have to patiently wait up to an additional month for thousands of dollars.
