Consistently upholds high ethical standards and demonstrates integrity in all aspects of his work.
We reached out to Doug because we were in a lease to own agreement where the owner died, and the home was in a trust and was going through probate and the family members were not wanting to honor the agreement for us to purchase the home. At the same time, we contacted different lenders, and we were receiving conflicting feedback about getting a loan.
Doug helped navigate through both issues. Probate took much longer than anticipated and had hurdle after hurdle. The deceased owner did not get the needed title work from the company he bought it from. That company was no longer in business. The law office who represented the dissolved company ignored us for two months! Ignored the representatives of the trust, 3 different title ladies, and told me I needed to hire an attorney just to speak to them. Say what?? After 18 attempts from 6 different people and two months, the representatives of the trust was telling me that we would have to hire a attorney who specialized in this matter and it would cost 2,500 to 3,500 dollars and take another 6 to 9 months to resolve. That means I would lose my loan and have to reapply and sit in limbo for months not knowing if me, my wife and 4 daughters were going to have to move or not.
We were literally minutes from signing with another law firm and paying thousands of dollars to go through a 6 to 9 months process. Doug told me to give him 1 week before hiring the attorney. Doug sent ONE email to the partners of the firm and we received the signed documents within 48 hours. I am still shocked. Doug accomplished something in 48 hours that a law office ( of 3 people ) who specializes in Real Estate Trusts, and 3 different title ladies, spent two months
Doug helped my family and I secure our home. Purchase it for 100K under appraised value, helped obtain the loan, saved us Thousands of dollars . Honestly if it was any other realtor we probably wouldn’t be in this home today.
Thank you very much!
