What recent reviews say

Doyle & Wallace handles real estate closings and settlement preparation across North Carolina and South Carolina. Most reviewers praise Matt Doyle and his team for responsive communication, thorough preparation, and knowledge of Charlotte's property issues. Several recent reviews highlight smooth, on-time transactions and personable service. However, some past clients report significant issues: delayed document delivery after closing, missed items (such as uncompleted land surveys) that held up post-closing plans, calculation errors affecting closing funds, and inconsistent pricing. The firm has earned strong standing with repeat real estate professionals despite occasional lapses in attention to detail.
