At CentraLand Title Company, we know title examination is an obligatory means to an end for everyone involved in a real estate transaction. We also know Central Texans have choices, which is why we focus on doing one thing very, very well: ensuring nothing can get between buyers and their dream property.
We take pride in our expertise, and in providing the superior customer service that has been at the heart of our business for 30 years. Ever since Temple's very own Jerry Secrest and Thomas Baird founded the business in 1980s, we've worked hard to turn a process often perceived as impersonal and frustrating into a positive (dare we say blissful) experience.

Services
Take our business, for example. In real estate, an oh-so-dry sounding title is actually the very exciting legal permission a buyer needs to say, "I own this place!" And a cold, detached-sounding title company is really an enlightened, dedicated group of people with their collective eye on one single prize: ensuring nothing can get between a buyer and their dream property.

Not responsive, unprofessional, and acted like we were a burden. This was my first time buying a home and they made the process unbearable. I almost had to push my closing a week because they kept sending the wrong paperwork to my lender the day of closing. Then blamed my lender. When we finally did close, there was no congratulations, no pictures, nothing. They were more than happy to throw us out so they could go home. Then after that, the seller refused to release the keys to us because they never communicated that the funds were released. I had to call and threaten to call the real estate commission

I was not a client of Centraland Title Co. and had never done any type of business with them, however, I had an out of state closing issue arise that had to be addressed immediately, here in TX. I turned to Centraland Title Co. to see if they would be willing to assist me. I explained my urgent issue to Ms. Charlene Burk, President, and she immediately responded that she would be glad to help me that very minute. I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Ms. Burk asked Ms. Donna Pavel to assist me with my needs. Ms. Pavel was as gracious as Ms. Burk. This is a company that truly offers excellent customer

I was not pleased with the services they provided thus far in the mere 2 weeks we were under Title with them. My client is a first time home buyer and unfortunatly they did not have an office that was close to her and offered to simply mail out the documents. I explained that would not work as she was a first time buyer. They had no other option. The Escrow Officer failed to explain that since they are not in the same county they had to transfer the file to a title company in the area and then once that other firm completed all docs they would send it back to Centraland. We recently terminated
