The Closing Collective LLC
About Kristin Plueard
Kristin Plueard is an independent transaction coordinator with The Closing Collective LLC working with California agents and brokers in California. 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.
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 California
- 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.
