(909) 855-0722About Kaitlin McCormies
Kaitlin McCormies is an independent transaction coordinator with The IDEAL TC working with California agents and brokers in Redlands. 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.
San Bernardino County spans the San Andreas fault through the Inland Empire valley floor and extensive Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones in the San Bernardino Mountains and high-desert foothill communities (Yucaipa, Running Springs, Big Bear). See how fire hazard severity zones affect disclosure. Mello-Roos is common in the county's newer Inland Empire subdivisions (Chino, Ontario, Fontana); mountain and high-desert communities carry it less often.
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. See our San Bernardino County hazard and property tax guide. More at our transaction coordinator page.
Common questions in Redlands
- What's the biggest natural hazard disclosure concern in San Bernardino County?
- San Bernardino County spans the San Andreas fault through the Inland Empire valley floor and extensive Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones in the San Bernardino Mountains and high-desert foothill communities (Yucaipa, Running Springs, Big Bear). That's the kind of county-level context the statutory NHD report is built to surface for buyers.
- What if the property is outside a transaction coordinator's usual coverage area?
- Verity NHD covers every California county, so a coordinator can order a report for a file anywhere in the state through the same process they already use.
- 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.
