I love Sylvia! She is one of the most caring, considerate bosses I have worked for! This is my last day here at Fidelity because I am retiring, but I need to say, this is one of the absolutely BEST places I have worked. I highly recommend Fidelity Title because of Sylvia Vila and Michelle Guiffrida! They are a great team to work for.

Sylvia is a great leader. She strives to be excellent at her job, and inspires me to also strive for excellence. Sylvia is a team player and shows her gratitude to her employees in numerous ways.
Sylvia embodies so many traits that are desired in an employer. She is honest and functions with integrity. Sylvia is an active listener, a strong communicator, compassionate, and kind.
I count myself blessed to work for such a wonderful person.

Sylvia is an incredibly positive, shining light to our Company. She will take any time of the day to talk to her team, and will not treat you as a number. She truly values her employees and knows that it takes all of us working together to accomplish the job. She will consistently encourage you to learn and do more that you even thought possible. She is the reason I am working at this Company and she keeps me striving to reach all of my goals, personally and those of the Company. Truly the best!

Title Manager, Flathead County Sep 2, 2022
I have worked with Sylvia for 7 years, and she has been a great leader, inspiration and the driving force keeping us in the top of our market. She strives daily to be the best and encourages all of her team members to do the same. We could not ask for a better manager, leader or mentor, and I consider myself very lucky to have the opportunity to work with Sylvia and call her a friend.

She sees the value of a strong supportive team as the backbone to always being prepared and ready to handle the needs of our valued Fidelity clients with poise and professionalism. She never hesitates to show her appreciation and respect for each and every member of the team!

Sylvia is a champion, committed to excellence. - She chooses her team of professionals with wise consideration and planning. Attentive to each employee as an individual and consistently encourages and exudes genuine care and understanding. Sylvia is driven to create an atmosphere of teamwork - everyone is important and it takes all of us to rise to the top. It is an honor to be a member of her leadership and guidance.

Sylvia has been our County Manager for a year now, and has been the best thing to happen to us, individually and as a team. Her positive attitude, motivational and managerial skills have refocused us as a team, and she is leading us to be number one in Flathead Valley. For me personally, she has been a great mentor and teacher for becoming a better manager and person. I am looking forward to our future under Sylvia’s leadership and guidance.

Sylvia does a great job as county manager for the Flathead operation. Before she arrived at our operation, we had little focus and drive. With her positive attitude and managerial skills, we have increased number of closings, market share, and added an escrow office in Bigfork, MT. One of her more impressive accomplishments is how she brought everyone together to work as a team. Everyone knows where they stand with Sylvia and what is expected, and she motivates without micro-managing. Escrow, Sales and Title all have clear goals. I have no doubt the future here is full of promise for all of us.
Escrow Officer/Branch Manager Bigfork Feb 17, 2016
I joined the Fidelity Title team in July 2015 after working at another title company for over 16 years and was a huge reason I decided to come to work at Fidelity. Sylvia is an inspiration to me, her positive outlook and enthusiasm for Fidelity is contagious. You can tell she absolutely loves her job! We are extremely fortunate to have her as our Manager.

Sales Executive Feb 16, 2016
I had a big decision to make with moving my family over 2000 miles to become part of the Fidelity National Title team again. Sylvia garnered instant respect from me because of her ability to lead, her vision to tackle a new territory and to put together a world class team. Sylvia realizes each and everyone's potential and instills the confidence to allow for growth in her employees which is exactly what makes for a great leader. I'm lucky to be apart of her team!

Sylvia is the real deal when it comes to title and escrow. She treats her business with the most precision and excellence and has built very solid long term relationships because of it. Sylvia is able to build respect and trust among her clients and staff members and has a big name in the industry because of it.
VP Sales/ Chicago Title Maricopa May 20, 2015
Sylvia is one of the hardest working people I know! She is an excellent coach and mentor to her employees, always listening and taking time to check in and support their efforts. She is very diligent in customer service and has always been my go-to person when I have a client who needs extra care. Sylvia is one of the most competitive people I know............and at the same time she knows how to have fun! Missing Sylvia here in AZ!
Seller Jan 19, 2015
Silvia did a great job making our side of the transaction go smoothly. I'd had anticipated a lot more trouble and kept wondering when the hammer would fall. To that end I called or emailed Sylvia a few times for updates, just to find all parties were doing there part well and all was progressing. Sylvia was easy to get on the phone and quick to respond to emails on each occasion.
Thanks

Sylvia responded quickly to all emails and questions we had on the file. She was able to accommodate a courtesy signing at a different location, which the buyer preferred with no problems at all. Overall, professional and great service!

Sylvia Vila and her staff are Top Notch! She takes her time and treats her clients like her family. Very professional and all files are worked in a timely manner. Our mutual clients are always very satisfied. I highly recommend using her and Chicago Title. Very reputable I never have any complaints from our clients. They have all commented, they enjoyed working with her and her staff.

The location is a plus. Directly off of the 101 and Tatum!

Sylvia Vila and her whole staff are by far the best I have worked with and I have been processing mortgage loans since 1980- they are professional as well as accommodating-friendly-responsive and most important-knows her job. If I could, and I had the say, all of my loans would go to Sylvia and her staff.

Seriously, Sylvia cannot be beat - I appreciate her every day.

Sylvia handled a complicated transaction and did a tremendous job. After closing, the buyer made some mistakes, and while they seemed small, they were the type that are difficult to fix. Even after all of my nagging, she was very professional and got it finished. A great person.
Loan Officer Oct 2, 2014
I LOVE this gal! I send all my refi business and purchases that I can to her. She goes well above and beyond to make sure a deal gets done. She is professional and very competent. I wont go anywhere else!!!

I have worked with this office for many years, going as far back as 2005. The staff there is quick, efficient, pleasant and responsive. Their refinance and purchase rates are the lowest I have seen in the industry. I can't imagine NOT using Sylvia's branch for our title needs.

My Name is Lou Garcia formerly with Chicago Title. I am very pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Sylvia Vila. I have worked with many Branch Managers and Escrow officers in my career of over 25 years. Working with Sylvia for 5 years was a great experience. I was always impressed with how she always went the extra mile. Sylvia is very personable, kind, supportive, understanding, helpful, happy with a smile on her face all the time. She is always on top of things and one step ahead.. I can go on and on, but i know the people that have worked with her can validate everything I am saying. To some it up in one work she is remarkable! If you ever have opportunity to work with her I know you will have a GREAT experience! I know I hope to work with her again one day!
