About OC Escrow Services
OC Escrow Services is an escrow company serving buyers, sellers and real estate professionals in Santa Ana, Orange County, California. Escrow holds the funds and documents for a sale, clears the conditions in the purchase contract, and records the transfer once every requirement is met — including the seller's natural hazard disclosure.
Orange County's hazard picture is dominated by wildfire in the hill and canyon communities (Laguna Beach, Anaheim Hills, Rancho Santa Margarita) and liquefaction along the coastal lowlands, with the Newport-Inglewood and Whittier faults running through the northern and coastal cities. See how fire hazard severity zones affect disclosure. Mello-Roos is common across Orange County's newer master-planned communities — Ladera Ranch, Rancho Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo — far less so in the county's older, built-out cities.
Verity NHD delivers California Natural Hazard Disclosure reports billed directly to OC Escrow Services — no setup, no card — with eSign included. Order the report now, and the invoice goes to the escrow officer on the file to settle at closing.

Common questions in Santa Ana
- What's the biggest natural hazard disclosure concern in Orange County?
- Orange County's hazard picture is dominated by wildfire in the hill and canyon communities (Laguna Beach, Anaheim Hills, Rancho Santa Margarita) and liquefaction along the coastal lowlands, with the Newport-Inglewood and Whittier faults running through the northern and coastal cities. That's the kind of county-level context the statutory NHD report is built to surface for buyers.
- What happens if a hazard disclosure is missing at closing?
- An incomplete disclosure file is one of the more common reasons a close gets delayed at the last minute, since the buyer's right to review hazard disclosures runs from when they're delivered, not from when escrow opened.
- Can the NHD report be e-signed?
- Yes — every Verity NHD report includes eSign, so the disclosure can go out and come back signed without a separate signature platform.
- Who pays for the Natural Hazard Disclosure report in California?
- By custom the seller pays, and it's standard for escrow to collect the fee at closing rather than asking the seller to pay upfront — that's exactly how Verity NHD bills escrow directly on a file.
