I have dealt with a few escrow companies over the years and California Coast Escrow is one of the best. Jen is knowledgeable, responsive, and easy to talk to. She guided me through the while process. Mahalo! read more

Let me tell you that my condo purchase was anything but a walk in the park, primarily because of the lender not being able to perform adequately. Another hurdle was that my fiancé is stationed overseas so documents needed to come with FedEx and his notary messed up the first time. Needless to say, there was a lot of stress involved. That's where Holly Ann came in as our saving grace! She stayed on top of everyone involved in the process, communicated every step of the way, was understanding of our frustrations and tried to resolve everything as quickly and correctly as possible. Thanks to her efforts, we managed to close right before Thanksgiving! read more

Jen, Hollie, and the team were fantastic to work with. As a mortgage broker, it really does make a difference working with a great escrow company. I would highly encourage using California Coast Escrow! read more

As a first time how buyer the team was very helpful with making this process easier than what I'd imagine. They were responsive both via email and phone call. I would recommend them 100 times over. read more

Daisy and Ashley were very helpful and responsive. The whole company did a great job facilitating the process, and we were able to close on time with no last minute stress. I would use their services again. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. Customer service is atrocious. Our agent Summer was clueless, unresponsive and clearly didn't her job at all. Email response has minimum 24hr turn around. After we closed HOA still charged us and upon following up with HOA they said nothing had been received from Escrow. So upon calling Summer at CA Coast Escrow she said she sent a package to HOA and clearly it would be my responsibility to cancel my bank withdrawal. Garbage, if she had followed up with Escrow, this wouldn't have happened. And for the money they charged it's ridiculous, plus she was clearly rude on the phone, i'm the customer paying her! read more

Quick response to any questions or need. Answered phone call and returned emails promptly. Knowledgeable and polite. Thank you read more

This company needs to work on logistics of delivering checks. I don't like to write bad reviews, but in this case I am highly disappointed. It has been 6 weeks since I purchased my condominium and my escrow makes me call and search for my check for my insurance company. Now I am forced to spend hours of calling around to take care of my insurance. read more

California Coast Escrow - Real Estate Services Near Me - Vista, California

I worked with Jen and Daisy and they were both always quick to respond. I had some issues with my lender and was worried I was going to miss my COE date, so I was pleasantly surprised how quickly CCE reacted to ensure I close on time. I would definitely use CCE again for future home purchase/refi. read more

As a realtor, i don't typically write reviews for the escrow companies I do escrow with (or I would be writing a review everyday!). This company however went above and beyond during the transaction and I believe they deserved acknowledgment. Jen M was the escrow officer and her entire staff stepped up to help out my client who was a little "old school". I needed them to reach out to my buyer before sending out any documents and they happily obliged with this request to make sure the buyer was well-informed. This was a quick close and they stayed on top of everything to make sure we were always on track. I would highly recommend this escrow company to anyone needing escrow needs. One a final note (agents will appreciate this)-I received my check the SAME DAY we closed. Unheard of! read more

I'm not sure where all these 5 stars are coming from. Our experience is nothing close to 5 stars. Everything seemed good in the beginning. But, by week 3, it all went downhill. There are too many people with their hands in the cookie jar. Too many people handling our account and nobody is talking to the other! No communication within the office and no communication with us or our realtor. I can't really point out any one person who's messed up at CCE, but I will say that Ashley was difficult to deal with. She treated my husband rudely. We caught one of the ladies (can't remember which one...we talked with so many) in a lie. When asking AGAIN where our paperwork was, she claimed she was waiting on our bank and had requested paperwork from them a week earlier. So, we called our bank... They said they'd just received the request that day... After reviewing our paperwork, we found several discrepancies. They were charging us for termite services which we had paid for 3 weeks earlier and had even given them the receipt. Good thing we look over every paper and caught it. Lots of other issues too. So many to list. Today is the day of closing. Our Bank found even more messed up paperwork from CCE. After speaking with our bank, she said, "Well, when you can't get people to do it the right way, you include the owner in the emails".... Our realtors in-house escrow company had to hold their (CCE) hands today to help them fix all the mistakes they made. So, CCE held up the process of us getting our keys by 24 hours. We paid them thousands of dollars and if we weren't constantly pointing out things they messed up, we were doing the work for them.... Save yourself the headache and go with another escrow company. read more

Jen, Daisy, and Ashley were always very responsive and quick. Thank you so much! Sincerely a happy new homeowner :)

Recently worked with California Coast Escrow on 2 simultaneous transaction. Their team handled both transactions with incredible efficiency. At the last minute we had an ongoing time delay - the patience and understand CA Coast escrow team showed throughout process was essential to transaction closing. Worked with many different escrows and this company is top notch. read more

Rachel Bishop text me about 10 times in the last year. I've asked her to remove me from her list 3x in writing and the text keep coming. I never asked for the spam and was polite in asking to be taken off. I wouldn't do business with California Coast Escrow and will now be countering them out of every contract. read more

Bottom line: CA Coast paid a 12 year old lien that had been settled 12 years ago and neglected to bring said lien to my attention...claiming they 'had' brought it to my attention via the DocuSign documents I had received. The payoff for the lien was over $200,000! One would expect, after hiring what I thought was a professional company, I might have received a call or even an email about said lien. No! No call, no email. To be fair, CA Coast did call me about another title issue which was easily resolved since I had all the necessary paperwork. So simple given CA Coast took the necessary 2 minutes to make a phone call... Once I realized I was short over $200k, I called for an answer. I was told 'there was a discrepancy' and we'll look into it. Well, the discrepancy was concerning a $500 'hold back' for HOA paperwork.... Ok, no problem. Where's the $200k? And, BTW, when were you planning to let me know about the $500? Again, not even a call or email regarding the $500!! I then demanded a 'stop payment' be put on the $200k check until this matter was resolved. I was told: 'No, we cannot put a stop on the check due to the Lender's Instructions' (which is nonsense) AND, 'we cannot stop the check because the money was wired'. Liar! No, it wasn't wired, a check was mailed. In the end, I did receive my $200k. Only took 2 weeks to resolve (sarcasm) with ZERO accommodation from the CA Coast Escrow -- NO apology, NO offer to refund or partially refund the $1000s in escrow fees, NO nothing other than a bunch of lip from the escrow officer and CA Coast Escrow essentially blaming me for their lackluster service. If this had happened to a senior citizen, this could easily be considered 'elder abuse'. As a consumer who is NOT a real estate professional, one relies on said 'professionals' to help guide one through the process. This is where CA Coast Escrow FAILED miserably! Lastly, this poor review could have been avoided with one SIMPLE phone call or email from CA Coast Escrow, but in this case, that was WAY TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR!!! Take your escrow business elsewhere... read more

Jen and her team are the best! Always go above and beyond, super personable, and know their stuff. Experience and courtesy go along way. As a realtor, I can always count on them. Thanks for everything. A + Service read more

Local Realtor in Temecula, and just used California Coast Escrow, for the first time. :) What a great experience for myself, and my client absolutely loved working with Jen, Summer, & Ashley. Very professional, on time and even stayed open late for my client to come in and sign during the Holiday week. Definitely will try and request them in the future. :) read more

This escrow company has been the best! Once they grew to understand our expectations that performed flawlessly. I list about 30 houses per year and have used 4-5 other escrow companies over the last few years, and they all would drop the ball at one time or another. These guys are on top of things and keep me, the broker, well informed, so I look my best to the clients as well. Plus they offer so many extra services which help my clients - all for no extra charge! read more

I wanted to start off by saying what a pleasure it was to work woth Holly Ann LeBlanc. One of the best Escrow Officer's I have worked with within the 20 years I've been in the mortgage industry. She fast, efficient, knowledgeable and very professional. I also found her to be very personable which made it even more enjoyable to work with her. I would recommend her all day long. If I could give 10 stars I would. Holly Ann you rock! Thank you for making the transaction as smooth as it was. Hopefully we will work again together in the near future. read more

Great experience! Jen was great to work with and handled the sale of my condo eventhough it came with a fair share of hurdles. She always kept me informed of the situation and I am thankful for all her and CCE's help. read more

I just went through a very complicated escrow with multiple delays and extensions. I truly feel that it would not have closed successfully without Holly Ann LeBlanc, escrow officer. Her professionalism, tireless efforts and attention to detail were appreciated and duly noted. I highly recommend Holly Ann and CA Coast Escrow - 5 stars! read more

Just closed a file with Jen Mendigutia as our escrow officer. She was amazing on a very difficult file. Always on top of where we were at and communicated very clearly with agents and lender! Highly recommended!! read more

The team at California Escrow took care of a complex real-estate transaction involving trusts, getting documents notarized overseas, and dealing with a stressful situation with professionalism and with kindness. I highly recommend them! read more

Excellent!! Always keeps the buyer informed and is very transparent. You are in good hands with California Coast Escrow

Jen and her team are phenomenal at what they do. They manage their transactions proactively, eliminating a lot of the stress and panic that can otherwise come up in the final days before closing. They maintain a calm, compassionate attitude that effectively guide clients throughout the process, and will continually go the extra mile for client care. read more

Jennifer, Summer, and Ashley were just lovely people and great to work with. They were always at the ready with prompt and accurate service and demonstrated superior communication skills. Even the doc signing was tolerable--which is high praise, indeed. read more

Ashley is crude and unprofessional. She lacks any customer service skills. Hopefully she can get some better training to better serve her clients. read more

I really enjoyed working with Holly Ann. As a realtor, I have worked with many escrow officers. Holly Ann by far was one of the best. I appreciated her professionalism, promptness, and attention to detail. My clients also shared with me how much they appreciated her responsiveness. Holly Ann was a delight to work with and I look forward to working with her again in the near future. read more

Jen Mendigutia is my favorite escrow officer! She is outstanding. She stays calm in a crisis. She is thorough and has an amazing team! She is easy to reach and makes you feel like you are her only client! read more

Paul and his team at California Coast Escrow are fantastic! With Paul's experience as a Real Estate Agent California Coast Escrow offers tools and resources to their Clients and Agent partners that are unmatched. Jennifer, Summer, and Ashley are a dynamic group. Their communication and level of service to both my Clients and myself have been unbeatable. Highly recommended. read more

Jen Mendigutia @ California Coast Escrow is, hands down, the best! She has helped me with several transactions and I have not had one issue. All pertinent documents are sent once and only once. BTW, no "I need this in 1 hour." or "can you send that again" emergency phone calls. I have not had one delay in escrow and I always feel like I know exactly what's going on and what are the next steps. As you can tell, I have had my share of escrow nightmares. Once I found Jen, I make sure to insist California Coast Escrow handles the escrow for my transactions. I can stress about other parts of the transaction, but I know escrow is going to be taken care of! Like I said, she's the best! read more

We had a very pleasant experience. Everything was handled safely and smoothly. First time buying a house so we are so fortunate we didn't have any hiccups with escrow. They are on top of everything! Thank you! read more

We just closed on a new home and our 21 day escrow was handled by Jen and her office staff. They were amazing!! They were very quick with responding to all my email or phone calls, very helpful, and professional. I can't say enough good things about this escrow company, they were great. I highly recommend them! read more

CA Coast Escrow offers very efficient service - closing my condo purchase in about 20 days! Everyone is friendly & easy to work with. Jen Mendigutia is my Escrow officer. She put clients first - she overcomes any challenges in order to make each step easy & convenient for clients. Their work was incredibly accurate. Daisy put extra work with lender to avoid any possible errors. I highly recommend their service, excellent & impressive. read more

You are confirmed! THe best 3 words I love to hear when recording a sale and we hear it all the time from Jennifer Mendigutia, Ashley Escalera, and Daisy Rojo from California Coast Escrow. They are hands down, THE BEST Escrow Team. I have been a real estate and mortgage broker since 2008 and having been involved in escrows with hundreds of escrow companies, the level of service is unparalleled. Not only are they on top of every addendum, payoff request, and document request they also are savy with esignatures and save our company tons of time with their efficient communication and extensive knowledge of the escrow process. Highly recommend to any agent or loan originator who can choose their own escrow company. Also recommend to a high volume broker who wants a higher quality team working with them. read more

Very prompt and professional. Someone was always available to answer any questions I had about paperwork. Great experience!

I had to use this company as a buyer and I have never been so unimpressed with an escrow company. I have delt with quite a few as a former transaction coordinator. Every time I called I was given attitude like I was bothering them. They never learned my name and always had to look me up by property. I had to go back and forth with them and my lender because they never knew what was going on. They didn't even get the parties contact information till we where ready to close. They would never let me talk to Jen the lead escrow officer. My husband went in because they needed our wiring information and they said they already had it and gave him another clients wiring information to review! This company needs to get their act together! Terrible service. read more
