"Great service, quick and responsive, accurate information. I was able to speak with a representative immediately after contacting. Answered all my questions. I had initially sought another title research company before AFX but canceled the order due to failed expectations and lack of concern for what I needed. Glad I did. AFX has been absolutely amazing customer service. It’s refreshing to get reliable and competent people who understand what you need. The comprehensive abstract report is exactly what I need. Now I have a piece of mind and can sleep a little better knowing I have the right information I need. Thank you. "
