Testimonials

Pinnacle title staff is amazing!! We just closed the most complicated transaction and they handled everything perfectly. A big THANK YOU to David Maged! He is an incredible attorney to work with, always goes above and beyond to get the job done right. Thank you Pinnacle title for your hard work and dedication!

We recently used Pinnacle Title to close on our new condo, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive. They took the time to explain every step of the process and made sure we understood all the details, which helped ease any concerns we had as home buyers. The closing process was smooth and efficient. The documents were prepared accurately and promptly, and the entire team was proactive in keeping us informed. On the day of closing, everything was organized, and the process was completed without any delays or issues. We especially appreciated David and Aryo, who went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Thank you again!!

Talking about living up to your name!! Pinnacle Title & Escrow is not just a good settlement company, IT IS THE BEST! Buying and/or selling a home is one of the most impactful moments of your life, and it is imperative to have the very best look out for your interest. You can imagine how exceptional someone has to be to earn your implicit trust and to be the ONLY CHOICE. That someone is David Maged, owner of Pinnacle Title! Thank you David! You are second to none!

I can’t thank David Maged and his team enough for their support and thoroughness They were one step ahead of me all the time, and kept me informed of progress as we got closer to closing. The team made everything easy to understand and really held my hand. Thank you!

My experience with Pinnacle has been one I will not forget. “Client comes first.” My calls were always dealt with in a timely fashion. Everyone I spoke to was considerate and made me feel like I was their main concern. Their fees were reasonable and better than I had expected.

As a Principal Broker being in Real Estate business for almost 40 years, I have been into so many settlements with so many title companies. However, Mr. Dody Achmad exceeded my expectations and did a great job for one of my settlements from the start of the process to the end. I am looking forward to working with him and his group in the near future. Thank you.
