The only reason that got a one-star for me is because you can't give it any less. The property tax office transfer office clerk's office Register of Deeds are trained to tell you know and they have no idea what they're doing a perfect example of government useless programs in action I've seen dogs smarter than the lady at the front office I had to literally reduce myself to tears and crying like a sobbing baby before the lady in the back would even come out and try to help me which she fixed with one push of a button
