…some part of a real estate transaction goes so darn well! In this case, I am referring to something as simple as the signing of the documents by the purchaser… This week, it was a first time buyer, minimal down payment with an FHA loan, buying a bank repo condo near the medical school he is set to attend starting next week. Pretty normal right? Except that he had to come from Tucson to sign docs, and the title company was in far north PHX. We elected to have a courtesy signing done at one of the branches closer to this end of town (SE Valley)… Many times, courtesy signings are an imposition on the office doing them. Takes someone away from their own tall stack of files to work on. We expected the “hurry up and sign this” from the newest (least experienced) member of the office staff. Enter, right here, the nicest, most patient gal I’ve met for a signing in ages! Carolyn Hubbard, of Great American Title, not only spent the time needed to explain every page of the document package, she did it with joy, humor, and honesty. The buyer had every question answered, even the questions he did not know he had! Great American Title is to be commended for Carolyn’s dedication to her job.
