Archer Land Title

I read on the Notary Rotary that Archer closed their doors on Fri. Oct 24th. I spoke to them about 3 minutes ago because I did a closing for them on Oct 1st and have not been paid. If you have not been paid call (Ace Mortgage at 317-275-3945 (accounts payable). Just so you know Archer has other offices I have done closings with in Minnesota. They stated that all offices are closing their doors as well as Ace Mortgage on November 3rd. You will have to leave a message with Ashley who is in accts payable. She is getting bombarded with calls so you will have to leave a message and she will call you back (Yeah right). If I do not receive a call soon I will keep calling about payment.

I just talked to Reuben in their corporate office and they are closing their doors. The MN office is already closed. They will be finishing their loans they already have orders for and then shut down. Everything is now being run through corporate.

Re: Archer

Are they planning on paying the notaries that they currently owe money to? I had a couple formerly great clients rip me off by over $600 each by having me do closings the last few weeks they were open, then closing down after they received their money, but didn't feel they had to pay me because they closed down. Minneapolis Archer has always paid within a week of closing, but I am owed a lot from the other. (I will post when I receive the money).

Re: Archer

I can't imagine them not paying. They normally they put me right on the settelment statement. Seems like that would be the best bet until they close up.

Re: Archer

All of the ones I am owed for by Archer Land are RESPAs. The other companies that stiffed me were some of my best clients that had always paid well and on time.

Re: Archer

What fax number are you sending your invoices to? The one I was given, 317-246-5780, does not go through. Thanks!

I was wondering why I haven't received a check for something I did about 3 weeks ago - had to go out and have a mortgage resigned that our County Recorder's office lost.

I did a closing for them the last of September, faxed my invoice on the first of October and was paid yesterday. (Hope the check doesn't bounce).
