Testimonials

Lee W.

I can’t begin to tell you how great it has been working with Patsy. This is what an escrow company is supposed to do: talk fast, get you in and out, speak clearly, and put everything in layman’s terms. She was very knowledgeable and made me feel like I knew exactly what I was getting and, more importantly, what I was signing. This is what dealing with an escrow company is all about. Nice friendly people, super great receptionist, and an all-around great experience! I look forward to making this my escrow company for future transactions!

We hired Bay Area Escrow Company to handle a complicated payoff on a loan for a property in San Francisco.  Patsy Mercado was our escrow officer, and she did a great job from start to finish.  She is very experienced and knows what she is doing.  Very good communication via phone and email, which I prefer.  No surprise charges by the company, even though there was more work that had to be done than initially was anticipated. Professional, timely, and got the job done.  I highly recommend them.

Just had a chance to sit down with Patsy of Bay Area Escrow Services. She is extremely knowledgeable, very experienced, and was able to answer all of my questions comfortably and with confidence.

If you are looking for an escrow company to help in the sale of a business, look no further. You’ve come to the right place, and Patsy is the right person to help! Since escrows are all they do, you know they’re good.

Customer service is high on their list of priorities, and it’s obvious from the moment you meet her that Patsy really cares about connecting with others and making sure they are well served by their choice of Bay Area Escrow Services. Making long-term business connections is so important, and this company truly recognizes and values that fact.

Bay Area Escrow Services was fantastic to work with! They are knowledgeable, efficient, helpful and professional. They walked me through the entire process easily and quickly. I had a lot of questions, and they were able to answer every one of them. Their response time to emails and phone calls was lightning fast. They saved me quite a lot of money, too! I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them!

There are many escrow companies to choose from, but I highly recommend Bay Area Escrow Services. Each of their staff members are highly professional and answer any questions and concerns promptly. They went above and beyond to make sure the process was not unnecessarily prolonged. The county of Alameda is always a pain to deal with for a thousand reasons, but they used their experience in dealing with them to cut through the typical government bureaucracies in an effort to close my escrow in a time-sensitive manner. I’ve dealt with other escrow companies before, but this one is by far the best, and I will use them again in the future.

I have run two business escrows through this company and found the owner and agent to be helpful, thorough and efficient.. They met my clients at the place of business when needed and did whatever it took to get the deals done on time.

Norm Ottley

We were in a bind and needed a closing statement from 5 years ago. Patsy Mercado not only answered our phone call, she supplied the exact paperwork we needed right away. This is a busy time for escrows and we truly appreciate her handling our request. I highly recommend Patsy and Bay Area Escrow to any and all who need their services. She went above and beyond the call of duty. I can’t thank her enough!
