I am a member of ARAG (a type of legal plan) where I found his name and a very high rating. I did not create an ARAG case because I planned to pay his fee so I cannot rate him in that portal. We lost valuable time because of the lack of courtesy. Use your own judgement when seeking the help of an attorney.

Our realtor highly recommended Stockman Title. We as the buyer's trusted our realtor. After we…read morepurchased the home, a very costly, avoidable and serious issue came up with our home after the sale, that required us to hire an attorney to handle as a result of Stockman Title and our realtor. Very important and critical conversations and e-mails were exchanged between the Atoka realtor and the title company that we were never even privy too. We find this very unethical. We were purchasing the home and why were we not included in these conversations and e-mails?  Again, we were not included in these e-mails and conversations. We were the homebuyer's signing our lives away. Because of this single conversation that we were not privy too, a very important transaction as part of a home purchase was not conducted, and resulted in us having to hire an attorney, costing us a lot of money. Our attorney had to resolve this issue, which was lengthy and which could have been totally avoided if we were included in these conversations. Never once did Stockman Title explain anything to us about this specific item, even though he took our money for specific insurance coverage, if this issue and/or item should occur. We had advised Stockman Title since the beginning of the transaction, that we wanted to purchase additional title insurance coverage. We found out later, that the title company insurance coverage would deny the claim based on this unexplained item not being performed during the home purchase transaction. Our attorney had to resolve this matter which was very lengthy and costly. Our attorney has sent letters to Stockman Title and our realtor based on this issue. Stockman did respond, which we have to say is better than that of our realtor and broker. However, he does not accept any responsibility and advised that our realtor informed him that we did not want to perform this item, even though we never said that and were again, not included in any of these conversations. We have previously purchased 2 other homes and the title company always spoke with us directly. We were never excluded from any conversations- or emails. If we were included in this conversation, this never would have happened. In our other home purchases, the title company/agent automatically ordered this item, which is why we were not aware of how important this item was. Stockman Title contends that they were given misinformation by our realtor and why did they both again, not include us in or verify this information. Be very careful when choosing to deal with this company.  We would hate to see this happen to someone else.  As a result, we had to hire an attorney and pay his fees to rectify this unfortunate and avoidable situation that we never should not have been in.  As a buyer, you hire these professionals (Stockman was highly recommended by our realtor) and pay them to do their jobs and protect your interests, as they are the experts. If we knew it all, then why would we need Realtors and Title Companies?

Obtaining the services of a real estate agent is much more than "finding someone to sell your…read morehome". This is especially true if you are selling an inherited property as I was earlier this year. A good real estate agent will know the area, know the laws and rules and will help assess your home and get it listed and sold for a "good price". A great real estate agent is a counselor, a partner in your effort, someone who "has your back" throughout the process in addition to doing all of the real estate work. Philippa Main is an *outstanding* real estate agent and an even better person. My father passed away leaving a home in Woodbridge, Virginia - the home in which I grew up and which contained almost 50 years of possessions. I contacted Philippa in March of 2026 to discuss its potential sale even as the house was in significant disarray while I engaged in the slow process of cleaning it out and sorting through the many things my parents had accumulated over the years. When she visited the home, I looked around and threw up my hands. Philippa looked around and said, "we can make this happen." I sought her out specifically because she mentioned having expertise in sales of homes that are inherited - a particular niche that involves a delicate dance of handling family dynamics, wills, probate laws and determining what, if any, money should be put into renovations or improvements that will get a reasonable return on the investment. From our first conversation over the phone - which she took time to do in the middle of a busy weekend - Philippa was incredibly personable, easy to talk to and anticipated many of my questions and many of my concerns as we talked. By the end of our conversation, I felt like I was chatting with a friend who had expertise I needed. Over the following three months, she was a (rapidly-responded-to) text or phone call away as I navigated getting the house ready for sale. She helped outline a schedule and a plan to list the home. She connected me with a large network of trusted service providers from junk removers to contractors to painters to flooring experts from whom I obtained estimates and some of whom I contracted to help clear out the house and prepare it for sale. While she always reiterated that she would back any decision I made regarding the house, I always sought her counsel when making major decisions such as whether or not to spend money on renovations and, if so, which ones were most important. Of course, there were obstacles - some amusing, some less-so - but Philippa helped me handle each one with a confidence borne of having "seen it before". That is an incredibly valuable thing when dealing with a stressful situation. In the end, the home was listed in June and had nearly seventy showings in three days. The house sold for well over its asking price and after all of it I know some things: The home could have been sold by another agent. But few, if any, others could have been a partner in the process the way Philippa was for me. She was a trusted resource, a confidant, a person who knew when to inject humor into a situation and when helping me vent was what was needed - she understands people and the process of selling an inherited home in addition to being a brilliant real estate agent who knows the area and who knows how to get the job done. I couldn't recommend her more for ANY real estate work but, especially, if you face the task of preparing and selling an inherited property.

Old American Title in Sterling does a great job. I have used them before, but last week I had a…read morerepeat client settle with them. The client is an overseas investor who settles using a local relative as power of attorney. We've done a couple of settlements before, previously with another settlement company in the same office park (convenient location for the POA). Both of those were excrutiating. Mystery fees popped up... Poor customer service, the list goes on. This was the smoothest closing with them yet. Phew. So pleased. Everything was done in advance - no last minute anything. Fees were exactly as previously quoted. No surprises. They even cut down on the writing required by the POA to make sure things moved a little quicker. Wow. What a much more pleasant experience. Thank you Mary and Chelsea! (PS - If you want them to come to your home or business for the closing, they will. They also do electronic filing for sales in Loudoun & Fairfax Counties allowing them to disperse at the table. This means REALTORS and Sellers can be paid before leaving rather than waiting for a check. A nice plus for those folks.)

Honestly, when we rented a property after owning one for over 10 years we knew having a…read moreprofessional property manager in place was key to minimizing risks as an owner but was also important for the tenants. However, from the very first day we rented we realized that Castle Property Management was not set up for a good stay( We moved in they did not clean the stove, refrigerator still had chunks food in it from previous owners, and the carpets weren't clean.) Joe's excuse was that owners did not listen to him.(Really?). As fools we rented the home to the max term and price clearly against my better judgement. They stated they have processes in place, but guess they really had none in place so that in reality nothing was provided like a tenant manual or at the time a tenant portal to document the 12 plus maintenance items we cant get resolved. The only issues they resolve quickly are what the owners bother them over like the lawn, the washer/dryer and the terminate inspection. Sad part is the owners aren't being served properly and we will document and let them know. Hopefully, the sump pump wont go out again at 2AM which apparently makes them upset. Not my fault the owners undersized it or have some water table issue. Sorry, but truth is they have to be a discount outlet and it shows. However, I do say they do respond to the minute when your late on the rent because of a nasty divorce and yes they are reachable by phone. Joe

We…read morehave been through this process many times over the years and have never had anyone provide that level of service. We encountered a number of challenges during one of our settlements, and though none were the fault of MBH or Richard himself, he took it upon himself to help us work through the issues. No matter when we called or emailed, he either answered right away or responded shortly thereafter, typically within minutes. Though I know he has many clients, he managed to make us feel as if we were his only one. Our experience with Richard was 5 Star+ and left us with a extraordinary reminder of what excellence and customer service looks like.

They have been very professional, and have answered any questions that we had, even if they could easily have told us to call our loan officer for instead. They never pressured us to hurry up in signing the paperwork, so each time we've left feeling like we had been able to make sure we understood what we were agreeing to. The second time we went, they recognized that we were repeat customers, thanked us for it, and even took a personal check rather than making us pay to get a bank check, which certainly saved us some money. All in all a great closing experience, and we'll certainly use them again next time we buy or refinance.
