I really cannot say enough good things about this company. I was under contract to purchase a…read morehouse and the close date was 2 weeks. The sellers had to push the date out citing the "snail slow speed of my title lawyer." Turned out, the sellers were trying to sell the property without any town permission on the subdivision, which is illegal actually. Chuck was diligently trying to get answers through the town planning council because the sellers wouldn't answer any questions, and their lawyer wouldn't return calls about the issue. He finally got a response and alerted me the night before the closing about the situation, saving me from untold legal costs and a total nightmare. He then stuck by me through 3 weeks of the sellers trying to find a workaround for the illegal sale. (They landed upon a contract where I would be in a mortgage with them until they were able to divide the property. Nope.) Subsequently, Chuck was my title lawyer for the property I eventually did close on, and the process was smooth, quick, and informative. I honestly can not recommend him highly enough. This is your team, and Chuck is your guy if you are planning to buy in Maine.
