When Meridian Title Corporation is asked to close your transaction the below applies...
When neither the Buyer or Seller nor their respective agents have given Meridian Title Corporation specific instructions as to which specific Vendor or Inspection should be used, Meridian Title will choose on behalf of and at the expense of the appropriate party a Vendor or Inspector who has previously done business at the request of Meridian Title and has provided the required services or inspection in a timely, professional, and responsive manner. Meridian Title Corporation, however, is not guaranteeing or assuring the parties to the transaction that the Vendor or Inspector is properly licensed, trained, or certified to complete the service or inspection requested. The decision by Meridian Title Corporation to choose a specific Vendor or Inspector is based solely on the past favorable experience Meridian Title Corporation has had. If the licensing, training, or certification of the Vendor or Inspector is a condition to which Vendor or Inspection should be used, the Buyer, Seller, or their agents should contact Meridian Title Corporation and so advise at the time of the request for said service or inspection.
