(27,283 posts)Learned about how real estate is transferred and all the legal paperwork involved. I had the job for three months and then quit annd moved out of my city and went to junior college in the suburbs. Near the end of my freshman year, I visited the company and asked them if they had any jobs. They hired me for the summer and for the next four years I worked my schools breaks and summers. Helped put me through college. I was able to pay my own tuition and buy my books. Of course this was before college became unaffordable. A semester cost me $125 then at a state college. The only help I got from my parents was my housing. I will be eternally grateful for that nice title company . They also offered me a job after college as a title officer but I ended up taking a job with Merrill lynch in the Municipal Bond department.
