About Cristie Clements
Cristie Clements is an independent transaction coordinator working with California agents and brokers in Fresno. A transaction coordinator keeps a deal on track from acceptance to close: opening escrow, tracking contingency and disclosure deadlines, chasing signatures, and making sure every required document — including the Natural Hazard Disclosure — is in the file on time.
Fresno County's Central Valley flatlands carry meaningful flood exposure from the San Joaquin and Kings River systems, while the eastern foothill edge toward the Sierra carries real Fire Hazard Severity Zone coverage; seismic and liquefaction exposure is comparatively light. See how fire hazard severity zones affect disclosure. Mello-Roos districts in Fresno County are concentrated in newer north Fresno and Clovis subdivisions, not the older valley-floor neighborhoods.
Verity NHD gives coordinators a fast way to order California NHD reports for their clients: bill it to escrow, pay by card, or send the seller a pay link, with eSign included on every report. More at our transaction coordinator page.
Common questions in Fresno
- What's the biggest natural hazard disclosure concern in Fresno County?
- Fresno County's Central Valley flatlands carry meaningful flood exposure from the San Joaquin and Kings River systems, while the eastern foothill edge toward the Sierra carries real Fire Hazard Severity Zone coverage; seismic and liquefaction exposure is comparatively light. That's the kind of county-level context the statutory NHD report is built to surface for buyers.
- Where does the Natural Hazard Disclosure fit in a TC's timeline?
- Most transaction coordinators order it in the first few days after opening escrow, since the seller's hazard disclosures have to reach the buyer before contingencies can be removed.
- Can a transaction coordinator bill the NHD report to escrow?
- Yes — ordering through Verity NHD lets a coordinator bill the report directly to the escrow file, charge a card, or send the seller a pay link, without carrying the cost themselves.
- What slows down disclosure packages the most?
- Missing or late natural hazard disclosures are one of the most common holdups coordinators run into near contingency deadlines — ordering the NHD report on day one avoids that.
