Dorothy Ruth Tischler

I cannot believe there are so many other positive reviews as my experience was very similar to the first poster from 2013. We retained Dorothy at the recommendation of our realtor (also probably a mistake). She had terrible communication; perhaps responded to one of the emails I sent out of many; n...ever answered or returned phone calls; when our mortgage loan originator finally called her with us in office, when we were basically at the finish line of closing, she responded, "Oh yes, that name sounds familiar." We had significant concerns on our sale, including the fact that the sellers were refusing to fill out the Property Condition Disclosure Statement. Most of it wasn't a huge deal, but I wanted to know if there had ever been a fire. Lo and behold - there had. As evidenced by the char marks we found upon final walk-through that were previously covered up. There were also unsettled issues of who would pay for what, and she assured us it would get handled in the closing. Except when it came time for closing, she told us it couldn't be changed. The whole thing was a nightmare and she was so unplugged. Our mortgage originator was really who ran the entire home sale.

Dorothy was the best part of the process with purchasing my home. Anytime I phoned, she answered and provided me with sound advice that was impartial and balanced. In other words, she did not tell me what I wanted to hear, but rather what I needed to hear. This worked to my advantage as I was able to... make informed decisions and the right offer that saved approximately 20k that I reinvested in the home. Moreover, anytime I encountered concerns following the purchase of my home, she always made herself available and provided me with the appropriate resources, which worked out even though it did not benefit her. I really respect this person. She is also a no nonsense person who is great at protecting her client's interest; she certainly did mine.
