About Us

A Local Team That Takes the Guesswork Out of Property

Forshay Land Title & Appraisal has served Roscoe, Winnebago County, and the greater Rockford area for over two decades. We started as a one-person operation with a simple belief: property decisions should be made with clear facts, not confusion.

Today, that commitment hasn't changed. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or an attorney handling an estate matter, we bring the same level of care and attention to every file that comes through our doors at 9135 N 2nd St.

We don't outsource our work, rush our reports, or hide behind legal jargon. You'll always know where your transaction stands and what comes next.

Client Stories

Trusted by Homeowners, Agents, and Attorneys Across Northern Illinois

We let our work speak for itself — here's what some of our clients have shared.

"We were about to lose a deal because the title search came back with a mess of old liens. Forshay tracked down the original deed, cleared everything up, and saved our closing. I can't recommend them enough."

Margaret R. Homebuyer, Roscoe

"As a real estate agent, I need appraisers who are fast, accurate, and easy to work with. Forshay checks all three boxes every time. My clients trust the reports, and that makes my job so much smoother."

Diana K. Real Estate Agent, Rockford

"Handling my father's estate felt overwhelming until we found Forshay. They walked us through every step — the title search, the appraisal, the paperwork — with patience and genuine respect. Thank you."
