I agree with you both. We would rather pay more for an insured product. Price is not an issue with us. Matter of fact it's one of the last things we consider when picking the best abstractor. I firmly believe you get what you pay for. I really don't ever expect to pay less than 50.00 for a current owner search.

I think these other abstractors who claim to do things quicker and cheaper are really hurting the integrity of the profession by not offering a good product and promising the world. I wish we could single these people out and get them out of business like you do for title companies that don't pay.
