I met Anna Pathe from Emerald Escrow back in February/March 2022.... and since then I don't know that I would ever use another escrow company if i can help it!! The entire team at Emerald Escrow is not only knowledgeable, but experienced, quick and efficient when working on all of my escrows for my sellers. They are so easy to work with, friendly and professional with my clients, and go above and beyond if there is a problem that needs to be resolved. Thank you so much Emerald Escrow for the amazing service! Looking forward to a continued partnership! read more

Fantastic Escrow company.....and I have worked with many! Great communication, quick service, easy transaction.

RUN RUN RUN from this company. They are a mess and sloppy work - missing numbers and not being available for calls and follow up. Their sloppy work caused so much confusion and rework it was horrible. The sad part is there was no accountability or regret. The only regret that we made the mistake of using them. Go somewhere else - this company is beyond your worst nightmare. read more

My experience with Emerald Escrow was like riding a horrible rollercoaster with no ending. This was a stressful transaction due to the company's lack of execution with respect to closing quickly as the property they serviced for me needed to close within 2 weeks. The completion of the escrow summary and closing disclosures were extremely delayed because the company "doesn't provide an estimate until they receive the buyer's loan documents". Mind you, I received full DU Approval prior to placing my offer. In addition, they charge a ridiculous settlement service fee of $2,042.50 in addition to several other inflated charges. What upset me the most is that I received the wrong set of initial instructions when wiring my funds as the escrow officer provided the wrong institution name and address over the phone which caused my wire to be returned. When I conveyed the wire-return issue, the escrow officer told me to address the wire to the appropriate institution and then wire went through successfully. My bank charged me a $30 wire transfer fee twice due to the escrow officers incorrect instructions. I kindly asked the President & Escrow officer to return my funds but to no avail would she acknowledge her employees mistake or refund my money. The prior reviews are probably based off transactions that are lengthy. If you're working on a transaction that needs to close quick, my advice is to proceed with caution or look elsewhere. read more

Horrible escrow company. We've worked with at least a dozen and this is one of the most incompetent escrow companies we've dealt with. Lots of mistakes and very little communication. In fact, they never communicated they didn't receive the buyer's deposit and the buyer ended up canceling 10 days before the close of escrow. Perhaps it's not incompetence and instead they have a relationship with the buyer (an investment company that offers cash for homes). Everything they've verbally told me has been incorrect and retracted multiple times. I've escalated to Lawyers Title, the company who owned Emerald, and while they seem "concerned" about what has transpired, there's not much action. Super shady. Beware. read more

As the "stressed out" Executor for my Cousin's estate, I must say that Donna, Anna, and each of there colleagues at Emerald Escrow, made my experience so very easy! Whenever I called them, and I called numerous times, they were patient with me and answered every question I had. Choosing an Escrow company is the absolute most important part of selling or buying a property! I highly suggest choosing Emerald Escrow? I trust them!?? read more

Emily was fantastic!! Very professional yet personable. She kept us in the loop at all times. I wish she worked for me. THANK YOU!! read more

I wanted to say a big "THANK YOU" to Emily Bahos for the amazing experience I had with her and emerald escrow. Emily assisted me with completing some complicated transaction that consisted of lots of research and being able to complete our request. Through the whole transaction Emily was very professional, knowledgeable and kind. She kept me informed through out the process of what was happening during this stressful time for me and my family. I could not have gotten through this without her. Thank you again Emily we greatly appreciate all of your help and support. The Fuentes Family read more

I'd like to say Emerald Ecrow have been a delightful professional company to work with buying my home. Thank you Emily Bahos for helping and taking me though escrow. read more

We used Emerald for our Small Business acquisition. This included an SBA lender. The process with the lender was long (10 months!) and crazy unfortunately, but Emerald stuck it out with us. I got to work with Teri, Jen, and our notary was Isabel. From the outset everything was pretty normal. The ladies gave instructions and requested items- pretty cut & dry. Teri always answered my emails quicker and more in depth than my own lender did. What really put the icing on the cake was the closing. Teri stayed up all night auditing our loan docs so we could quickly get things turned around. She scheduled the notary next day. She took the time to explain the things I was signing and made sure I understood the process. I feel like she was dedicated to making sure the process was personal and time efficient. Teri called me on the phone and said "we did it girl, you are there!" And I was so relieved to hear that. All in all we had a good time and the job got done. I would recommend Emerald Escrow in a heartbeat! read more

Extremely helpful and professional. Would definitely recommend for a smooth and easy escrow.

Knowledgeable and efficient! Great team that is eager to help you, special thank you to Karen F.!!

In business for a long time for a good reason. They have proven experience and knowledge over a broad range of markets. Great service; especially Karen who answered my questions and walked me through the process with patience and care. I highly recommend this team of long term experienced Escrow Officers and staff. read more

I would highly recommend Alicia! she was efficient, knowledgeable, and so friendly!!

Would give 10 stars if I could! Was in and out in a timely manner and everyone was so polite! (Especially the lady that helped me Alicia) Would recommend to anyone and everyone! read more

Everything was great until escrow closed and I kept waiting to receive the recorded deed. After about 3 weeks I emailed them to request the copy. No response to the email. A few days later I called the office. The person who answered listened to my concern, told me to hold on, then transferred me to the recording of someone else. I left a message and STILL have not received a response. So ... once that escrow closes, they are completely done with you. read more

Emerald escrow is one of the best escrow companies that I have had the pleasure to work with. They NEVER ask agents/TCs to handle something with a client. This team takes initiative and is always on top of everything. read more

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Emerald Escrow. The whole team over there is extremely helpful and knowledgeable with the entire escrow process front to back. In addition, they are all super friendly. I have worked with them on a number of properties and it's all been smooth sailing. All necessary documents were obtained in a quick fashion. They take precautions when it comes to the current covid situation, making sure their notaries wear safety equipment and disinfect. Overall a great escrow company who is at the top of their game! read more

One of the better escrow team I worked with in the past 30 years. Very professional and on top it. My transaction was very stressful and it meant so much to me that they went above and beyond the last few days to keep me in the loop(more than the normal updates) . It made a huge difference in my buyer not stressing and myself as well. I highly recommend Donna and Anna. read more

Shannon Noah And team are the BEST escrow i have worked with. I have been in the mortgage business for over 20 years and I could not have been half as successful without Shannon and her team. If you need a great escrow team. SHANNON is the one to go to. Love them read more

10 Stars for Shannon Noah and Julia McCabe!. Shannons team is phenomenal. I've been practicing real estate for twenty (20) years and she is the best. When you have a tough escrow you want someone who can be strong, calm, creative and close the escrow. Shannon is a great problem solver and has so many contacts. She's knows almost every Title Officer. She regularly closes some of my toughest escrows such as probate with a reverse mortgage thats also in foreclosure, yeah try that LOL. Shannons Team is the best they work the longest and she still gets me my estimated closing statements for my Listing presentations when I request them on a Friday. Joe Orozco KW Corona read more

Very poor buying experience run through this escrow. Unreasonable demands and threats, unrefined escrow process, deal came down to the wire and they made demands that weren't enumerated up front including calling me a liar regarding how a document was signed. Will not use this escrow again and will ensure that my friends and clients are made aware of my experience here should they show interest in using this escrow company. read more

Love love Colleen at emerald escrow - we've been working together for 8+ years and have built a great relationship with each other and with clients alike!

I attribute the success of my company to its level of service, speed and efficiency. One reason we are able to provide the level of service, speed and efficiency that sets us apart from our competitors is the escrow company which we have been using for over a decade. Shannon Noah and her Team (Julia, Erika and Cindy) at Emerald Escrow are an integral part of our success. Shannon's all around wisdom and experience has been a blessing to all of us at Evoque Lending and our clients. Shannon, an outside of the box thinker and a kind and capable human being, is the reason our clients praise us. We receive constant positive feedback of Shannon and her Team from our clients and our investors. I have no reservations of recommending Team Shannon at Emerald Escrow to any real estate professional. read more

I'm a first-time buyer, so this whole process was stressful in and of itself. Thank goodness for Peaches, she was so very patient with me and my millions of questions. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly and did so promptly. Peaches, you held my hand through escrow and did a great job communicating with the lender and realtor to keep us all on task. Thank you for your professionalism, communication, and special care you take in your clients. Best, Lorissa read more

Seamless process. I don't typically have listings in Corona, but if I did, I would recommend them every time. I really do appreciate their services. Thanks again!! read more

Unprofessional is an understatement. Shannon Noah was our escrow officer and she made mistakes on our legal paperwork (one which led us to pay the WRONG taxes). We caught them, brought it to her attention, and waited for updates. It was a struggle getting any clarification or answer from Shannon. In the end I finally got her on the phone where she was completely unapologetic and patronizing. I was so fed up I told her at one point I didn't appreciate her attitude and she completely disregarded me. Horrible, horrible experience. I hope and pray there are no more mistakes because dealing with Shannon was a nightmare. I'm suspicious of the reviews here that are actually positive. read more

Emerald Escrow us my go to escrow. As an agent, I've had the pleasure of doing business with them many times snd I cannot recommend them enough. Reliable, responsive, and trustworthy. Donna and her team at Emerald are the best! I will continue to refer business to them if anyone asks! read more

10 out of 10! Donna and her team, Anna and Emily, are a pleasure to work with. They go above and beyond helping my clients and I in every transaction. With their depth of knowledge and decades of experience, you are in good hands with Emerald Escrow. read more

When you are buying or selling real estate, what escrow company you work with can definitely have a positive/negative impact on your overall experience. With that said, Emerald has been continually closing our transactions without a hitch for the past 3 years. I highly recommend to any buyer, seller, or Realtor. Donna runs a tight ship and her staff is friendly, knowledgeable and never too busy to explain a process or forms for the transaction, etc. A+ service, and all employees are always working hard to have a great transparency in our business so that my clients have a keen understanding of where they are at in the escrow process for their sale or purchase. Love em. read more

Huge Thank You to Shannon and the rest of your team. I have been in the Mortgage Lending Industry for over 25 years and worked with countless Escrow Officers and companies. Shannon you and your Team are Top Notch and it is such a great feeling to know that if I need something especially some last minute item or a super rush when I'm up against a deadline all I have to do is pick up the phone or send a quick email and you guys are On It! In this industry where we are always up against a deadline and where there are A LOT of moving parts with each specific transaction it is really nice to know that you and your Team are On Point and always get it done! I would like to personally thank Shannon and her Team: Julia, Erika and Cindy for continuing to provide me with excellent service. Your professionalism and attention to detail makes my job MUCH easier - I appreciate you! Thanks for all your hard work - especially in these unprecedented times!
