30 day tag expires tomorrow and thanks to this popping up when I searched "Wayne County Title Office hours" I got to the ACTUAL Title Office 10 minutes after they close on a Friday. Lovely.

I have closed more than 5 properties using Wayne County Title. Louise Keating and her staff have always provided professional, excellent service. Louise takes the time to make sure her customer understands the legal jargon of contracts.
