I've had a lot of experience as a buyer and as a seller of houses throughout my 50 years of real estate in Southern California. Escrow is the key component of the transactions and if you don't have a pro working out all the details, you can be in big trouble. Fortunately, there is Viva Escrow with Juliana at the helm of her highly trained team. My husband and I recently sold our house in Los Angeles, and of course, our go to escrow company was Viva Escrow. Juliana's attention to every detail made the process go very smoothly. I highly recommend Viva Escrow! You will be very impressed. read more

I work graveyard, so I sleep in the daytime and was in the process of buying my first investment home, Vanessa James went above and beyond on the closing of the house. She communicated and worked around my schedule throughout the whole process. Vanessa even came to my house when it came to signing the paperwork. I would highly recommend Viva Escrow. read more

It's such a pleasure working with Vanessa James from Viva! I've encountered other escrow officers; among them all, Vanessa is the best.

Just plain awesome and professional, not much else to say. At each and every step I knew what was expected of me and what was happening without ever having to ask. Can't recommend highly enough! read more

I had an extremely unprofessional customer experience with an employee from Viva Escrow. The employee had the audacity to ask if it was my first time conducting a wire as if I had no idea how to follow simple wire instructions. She was rude, unprofessional, and instead of answering the clients question, she continued to make smart ass remarks rather than giving a yes or no answer to a yes or no question. I've never experienced such unprofessionalism. read more

We just sold our house and Viva escrow was fantastic. Vanessa was the escrow officer on our case and she was very responsive, diligent and extremely kind throughout the whole process. We would recommend them and use them again! read more

It was a pleasure working with Vanessa James! I have a super busy work schedule. Vanessa was very accommodating, handled all the escrow works promptly and made the process easy for me. I live 2-hr one-way driving distance from her location. Vanessa had to come out to my house for the notary and signing, after her normal work hours. She was very respectful, friendly, yet efficient going through all the documents! Excellent communication throughout. Thank you, Vanessa, and Viva Escrow for upholding such excellence service standards! read more

Miriam and Julianna are great! TRUST THEM! They are amazing! They are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. They answered all of my questions pertaining to my mother's property. Yelpers! For an awesome escrow company look no further! read more

Just closed an escrow with Juliana Tu, who was an absolutely wonderful professional to work with. Love working with escrow professionals who make the escrow process a pleasant one for all the parties. Way to go Juliana! read more

The only escrow company I use. They're so on top of their files that it makes my job as a realtor so much easier. I've worked with other escrow companies in the past who were terrible, but Viva goes the extra mile. They also take the time to talk and explain things to the clients and I really appreciate that. I personally use Juliana and Annie and I have never received a complaint from my clients or other agents. THEY ARE THAT GOOD. read more

I just closed an escrow with Vanessa at Viva. She was wonderful! Very on top of everything, a great communicator and went above and beyond to get us closed in a timely manner.

Tammey was incredible to work with. Not only was she super responsive and always available over email, call, and text, but she also was super patient to answer our many questions and provide a thorough and easy to understand explanation for how the escrow process worked. We were really impressed when she took the initiative to say that she welcomed our questions and told us that any time we had even the smallest question, that we could call her. She proactively checked on things for us with the seller's team that we did not even know to ask. Tammey really put us at ease and she worked quickly, professionally, and kept us updated through the process. Tammey is very experienced and capable and gave us a very smooth escrow and is the nicest person. We highly recommend her! read more

I have been a real estate investor for 31 years and a Realtor almost as long so I have worked with escrow companies large and small. Of course nobody is perfect but Juliana and her Viva Escrow team is the best in the business. Not only is Juliana professionally best in the business, she or her team is never too busy to address client concerns and resolve problems the transaction will definitely come across. What can I say? If I need escrow services in Southern California, Viva is my only choice! read more

My wife and I are first time home buyers and honestly the process was pretty easy and smooth working with Viva Escrow. Good communication on their part and handling of all the numbers and documentations. Definitely recommend using for any of you who are first time home buyers or even if you have bought homes in the past. read more

Vanessa James was our escrow officer. She went above and beyond to manage our transaction, and her communication was excellent. I highly recommend Viva! Escrow. read more

Annie Vong is my companies go to escrow agent. I don't take 5 star reviews lightly so trust me when I say Annie will go above and beyond for her clients and she literally never makes a mistake. I have worked with countless escrows and they all dropped the ball consistently but not Annie. Beyond her work ethic, she is always upbeat, polite, and available. Once again, not a normal thing in the escrow business. Needless to say- if you need an escrow company and an agent who always gets the job done- look no further than Annie Vong. read more

Just finished a transaction with Tammey Bazinet, it was seamless from start to finish. Tammey went the extra mile to stay in contact even when on vacation!!! Tammey is ALWAYS AVAILABLE and on the rare occasion she isn't. She will make sure her assistant is up to speed on specifics related to your file. I was not only the seller but also the listing agent. Tammey worked through the details of a 1031 with ease. Tammey's expertise and knowledge of the business in amazing. I am recommending Viva escrow to all my friends and colleagues!!! read more

I've bought and sold a handful of homes over the years, and this was the smoothest escrow that I can ever remember. They were efficient and professional. Thanks for the hard work. read more

I want to thank Rebecca for taking her time explaining things and answering my questions as she was knowledgeable regarding my mother in-laws property. She did not ask for anything in return and looked up and called two title companies. I will definitely be using this company for our future needs. read more

Just closed another escrow with Viva Escrow and wow, it's night and day working with this company, it holds truer the more I encounter other work environments. Working as a Realtor, I like to "hope" that I don't need to tell you how to do your job, I'll do what I do best and I trust that you know what you're doing.. If only that was the case all the time. I had the pleasure of working with Annie Vong, she's extremely knowledgeable, meticulously organized, and such a pleasure to work with. On your team, whether you're the realtor, client, lender, etc. everyone should be able to help take the load off of one another and make you look like a pro especially in front of your clients, Annie will handle that for you so you have one less thing to worry about. I've recovered countless hours of work per file and avoided headaches that have been resolve prior to reaching my desk. That's what your need when your life operates around deadlines and cutoffs times. Thanks Annie for taking a huge load off and making all of our escrow experience smooth as can be. I highly recommend connecting with Annie, pick her brain and find out for yourself. read more

I've been working with Juliana Tu for nearly a year and it is hard to put into words how much she and her team have streamlined our transactional process. There are many Escrow companies in Southern CA but few with the technological savvy of Viva Escrow. Each member of her team is efficient, knowledgeable and most importantly focused on the bottom line-closing transactions. If you are a realtor or a Real Estate team looking for an world class escrow company-look no further. read more

I can not say enough about how happy I was with the escrow services that Viva Escrow provided. After having a recent bad experience with another escrow company (who didn't do their job which cost me thousands of dollars and made it so the the property didn't go through)--I was so relieved to work with Julianna and Miriam. They were completely on top of the escrow and provided the documents in a timely manner and had a lot of patience and a friendly attitude. I would highly recommend their services to anyone. read more

Juliana Tu has been extremely patient and helpful during the whole process of our first home buying in CA.

I have worked with Viva Escrow and Annie Vong on numerous transactions. Annie has come through for me on many occasions. Annie is knowledgeable, reliable, and QUICK!

I just closed escrow at Viva last week. Even it was seller's choice, I have to say I was very impressed by the professional service provided by Sr. Escrow Officer, Angel Kwok! Angel was not only very friendly, patient, efficient, detail orientated, and fast on responding to emails, but most importantly she was so experienced to handle any unexpected issues during the escrow. With Angel's great work, we resolved some last minute blocks and closed escrow on time. Definitely would recommend Angel to anyone who needs escrow service! read more

This company deserves negative stars only if there is a way to give them. If you want to loan to close in time, don't use them. I can not even begin to describe the escrow agent's incompetence. read more
