Carefree Title Business Park Dr, Austin

I didn't consider the title company much when buying my house, so in the days leading up to the closing I got nervous when I read the negative reviews for Carefree. Our experience was perfect - there were no typos, errors, or delays. We got our keys without incident. As another reviewer mentioned, I think when things go well nobody bothers to leave a positive review because so much goes on after closing. If you pay attention to your emails and calls and stay in contact with your loan officer, the process is surprising simple. If you're anxious about closing, I hope you read this and feel comfort. It's easy to call someone if you're unsure about any part of the process or if you have any questions/concerns. Meritage and Carefree made the process as easy as possible.

I was really nervous to buy my house though Carefree because of all of the negative reviews, but they were so so helpful and wonderful to us. We still use a bank that's out of state, so our bank was giving us a hard time about wiring the money for closing without us physically walking in (impossible from this far away and especially during a pandemic), but Lynn and her team talked me through everything, made us feel infinitely better, got us the paperwork we'd need to make the transfer happen, and were generally great. Plus we ended up overpaying a little and got the remainder back in a check super fast. I'm not sure if our very very good experience was a fluke or if the previous bad reviews are evidence that people usually only write reviews when they've had a bad time, but regardless we had a overall positive experience. If you're working with Carefree soon I hope this brings you a little comfort. Buying a house is stressful but it'll be okay!

If zero stars were an option I would have selected it this is literally the worst company, the worst lender, the worst title company, linked to the worst builder I have ever experienced in my entire life. Avoid at all costs and tell every single person you know that Meritage home Meritage lending MTH and carefree title company are horrible.

Not a great place to get the title done , compelled to do because meritage has a tie up with them , Mrs Lynn Ischy is good but other staff are not responsive!

Terrible service. Complete lack of urgency and disregard for realtors

I do not recommend using Carefree Title as almost every document I was provided had typos left and right. I was under the impression that the final closing docs would be corrected and accurate but they still somehow left out a $500 fee I had to pay 4 months after closing because of a typo they admitted to making. No remorse for the mistake, they should really do better.

This is the 3rd time I've purchased a home and I never received such horrible service.I used a different title co because it was cheaper but I still had to work with Carefree to get my keys. You have to send repeated emails to receive responses.A last minute change from them during closing,cost me money. I didn't receive the keys to the house the day I closed because "they didn't receive the wire from my title co" which was sent hours ago

You have to ask for everything ten times before you get it. The insist on using fax machines (in 2020?!?!) and an archaic secure mail system that doesn't work. I was so happy with the quality of my house and builder but they need to fix their title company.

This was a great title company. Awesome friendly people! Also worked weekends!!!

Worst title company to deal with. Avoid!
