Dissappointing

I am very unhappy with a real estate closing conducted by this office. They took 5 full days (3 business days) after closing to wire my mortgage payoff, costing me hundreds of dollars in unnecessary interest. Living far from this office, I did not attend settlement, but overnighted my signed document...s to the office before closing. I did not receive countersigned copies of my closing documents for approximately 20 days after closing and only after following up and requesting them. This office was selected by the buyer, but I paid this attorney a closing fee and additional fees to handle the mortgage payoffs. I asked if they believed they earned the fees they charged me and that question went unanswered. I would not recommend this office.

We are unable to wire funds to a seller until we have 'good funds' in escrow. Unfortunately the buyer's funds did not clear until 3 days after settlement. We do inform buyers as to the necessity of bringing 'good funds' but alas and alack, some buyers arrive with funds that fall short. We wired funds to seller the day that the buyer's funds sufficiently cleared. Disbursement was discussed at settlement with the seller's attorney. The seller's attorney left settlement with fully executed copies of all documents that the seller signed.

Would recommend this office

I have used the services of Craig Ingram several times, for my personal real estate transactions as well as those for others. I have always felt comfortable with the timeliness, experience and competency of Craig and his staff. They will do whatever it takes to make the client happy.

Satisfied for 11 Years and Counting.....

My husband and I have been in real estate for over 11 years and have recommended Craig Ingram to our clients over and over. Why? Because Craig is by far the most knowledgeable real estate attorney in our area and when buyers leave the closing table - they know exactly what they have purchased and if ...there are any encroachments, etc. His staff is excellent and they are quick to get back with you. If you need legal assistance - Craig is always available to help you out. We have had such good experiences with him that we even asked him to write our personal will! We highly recommend Craig Ingram for any real estate matters.

Real Estate & Will Preparation

When we moved to this area almost 10 years ago, Mr. Ingram was our closing attorney. Since that time, we have utilized his abilities to help with my in-laws for powers of attorney and other legal matters pertaining to issues of aging. In both cases, he was able to explain the laws to us and take us t...hrough the entire process making sure we understood every step along the way. We would definitely utilize his services in the future!
