Having closed multiple properties with Summit Title here in NH I can say theyre nothing less than amazing. Ellen Frith, my account manager is an angel. She is funny, extremely responsive, and handles my clients with the highest level of care. Sometimes scheduling a closing becomes a last minute ordeal due to everything happening behind the scenes to reach that point. Summit has always been more than accommodating with getting us on the schedule; at a time and place that works for all parties. Mark Perkins, hands down the best closing attorney Ive ever had the privilege of sitting at a table

First time home buyer. Such a bad experience. They forgot to add the fuel proration to the final closing cost. A few days after the closing they reach out asking me to send them a check for +$1500. I clarified to them that since I had spent all my money on house repairs, I would pay them with my next paycheck. Later I find out, the only reason they found out this amount was missing because the check they gave my real estate agent was deficient and her company had reached out to Summit who then figured why it was short. They then proceeded to ask my real estate agent to contact me directly to get

I have worked with many home buyers and Summit Title has always been one of my go to title companies for them. Their communication throughout the entire process is great. The staff is friendly and customer service is second to none. I continue to highly recommend to all home buyers and have used Summit Title several times on my personal purchase or refinances.

Wendy was my title closing services coordinator and she was a absolute pleasure to talk to and very responsive. I had to move the closing date, which was stressful, however the team at summit made this very easy and communicated very well with me about the documents needed and organizing everything with such speediness. Overall, they have great customer service and everyone at Summit that I spoke to was very knowledgeable! This couldn't have been a better first buyers experience thanks to Summit.
