Pickford Escrow – Gary's Winning Team

April 3, 2011 By

An escrow company acts as a neutral third party in the North County real estate transaction.  As such, they are bound by law to notify both buyer and seller if the instructions given to them are not mutually consistant or if they cannot be carried out.  Pickford Escrow holds legal documentation and funds on behalf of the North County buyer and San Diego seller.   The escrow holder works closly with Gary Harmon, your North County Realtor, the buyer, the seller, and the lender to assure the sale’s conditions are complied within the time period call for the the purchase contract.

Pickford Escrow is one of the largest full service escrow companies in the state, with 13 offices in Southern California. Pickford Escrow has a distinguished reputation for experience, stability, and dedicated customer service. I have been proudly recommending Pickford Escrow since its inception.

Since its establishment in 1991, the firm has focused on a single mission: to deliver the highest level of professional service to its clients. As part of a comprehensive, collaborative real estate team (Realtor®, lender, title officer, escrow officer, transaction coordinator), the company acts as a neutral party to facilitate a variety of real estate transactions for a diverse range of clients.

Pickford Escrow is fully licensed by the Department of Corporations which holds it to a higher standard in both experience and trust accounting practices. Pickford Escrow is part of HomeServices of America Inc., a Berkshire Hathaway affiliate. This powerful alliance reinforces the strength, excellence and integrity of its service to you.

There are many great escrow officers at Pickford, but Gary has found Karyn Dillon to be especially professional and caring.  Karyn, with over 12 years of escrow experience, has become a valuable member of Gary’s winning team.  You too will find Karyn and her staff a customer service driven team of professionals always focused on consistently providing the highest level of quality escrow service.  For more escrow information see the main Pickford Escrow site.

Make Gary Harmon, your North County Realtor, and Pickford Escrow your winning real estate team.   Other members of the Gary Harmon team include Prudential California Realty, California Title, Home Services Lending, and Prudential Relocation.

California Title Company – The Binder

November 10, 2010 By

Sell With a Binder to Insure a Sale

The buyer of a San Diego North County home who anticipates reselling it within 2-3 years can save a significant amount in title charges by purchasing a binder from California Title Company.  A binder is a temporary contract in which California Title Company agrees to issue a specified policy within a certain period of time.  The binder must be requested before the San Diego North County home being purchased closes escrow.  The fee for the binder is 10 % of the basic rate.  This would be in addition to the applicable fee for an Owner’s policy which is usually paid by the seller.  The use of a binder in your transaction can result in a significant savings when the North County property is resold.

CalTitle Binder Example

  • $350,000 Initial Sales Price
  • San Diego buyer plans to sell within two yeare for $450,000

In this example the basic rate is $1,079.00.  The CalTitle binder fee is an additional $108.00 (10%).  The buyer sells the North County property two years later for  $450,000.  The basic rate for a full California Title Company policy at that price would be $1,248.00.  The San Diego buyer now pays the difference between the two basic rates, i.e. $1,248-$1,079=$169.

Three (3) Year Binder

Prior to the expiration of the two year period, a binder may be extended for a third year for an additional 10%  of the basic fee.  This would still offer considerable savings.

California Title Company is part of Gary Harmon’s Winning Team.  For title information, contact Gary Harmon, your North County Realtor, and he will have an experienced team member give you a call.  

To get more information about San Diego North County real estate, including Carlsbad homes, Oceanside homes for sale, Encinitas homes, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido real estate, contact Gary Harmon.

Prudential California Realty – Join the Best!

November 4, 2010 By

If you are considering buying or selling a San Diego North County property, you should be represented by the best company and a great Realtor.  Prudential California Realty was once again ranked as the BEST for 2010.  Keep reading to find out how you too can benefit from “the BEST” when selling your San Diego North County property.

Prudential California Realty was Voted the BEST

Prudential California Realty was recently voted San Diego’s Best Real Estate Brokerage in the Best of 2010 poll.  More than 100,000 readers took the time to cast a nomination for their favorite businesses in San Diego during this year’s poll, which was conducted by the San Diego Union.

“Every member of our team, from our agents, managers and support staff, to the professionals in our marketing, relocation and technology departments has contributed to our success and the winning of this award,” said President and CEO Jon Cook. “We are very proud to receive this distinction and would like to thank our San Diego North County clients for their years of loyalty and support.”

Cook also acknowledged that Prudential California Realty’s commitment to offer clients relevant information about the condition of local real estate markets had been a key factor in the company’s ongoing success. “To facilitate the goals of our clients, we ensure that they receive practical advice and useful insights about all of the communities we serve,” he said. “Having 58 locations allows us to provide local-based representation for clients with a broad spectrum of needs.”

Prudential California Realty also offers professional and comprehensive representation throughout San Diego County,  Southern California and the Central Coast. A Berkshire Hathaway affiliate, Prudential California Realty is one of the top five brokerages in the nation.

Prudential was also recently named the leading brokerage for satisfaction among home sellers, in a survey conducted by J.D. Power and Associates. The achievement is especially impressive in light of the fact that the condition of the housing market has been more favorable to buyers over the past year, and seller satisfaction rates are typically low when the economy reflects a buyer’s market.
Prudential California Realty is an independently owned and operated member of The Prudential Real Estate Affiliates, Inc.
