Chaparrell Hilliard
Escrows and Operations Manager
One of the most complex tasks of any real estate transaction is to ensure that contracts and forms are properly executed and that all regulatory requirements are met. For condominium projects, large numbers of transactions have to be coordinated in a relatively short time as well as satisfy additional regulatory requirements.
Chaparrel has been the escrow coordinator for other real estate companies for the last several years, closing hundreds of real estate transactions. In addition to taking care of single family home transactions, she is part of the commercial and business acquisitions and sales teams. She is well versed in the current regulatory requirements for real estate transactions and ensures that all transactions meet these requirements. She interfaces and, when needed, resolves issues and problems with buyer's and seller's real estate agents, loan officers, inspectors, escrow and title insurance companies, property insurance agents and others for successful closures of transactions.
No matter how well a condominium project is planned and executed, without the appropriate attention to the paper work involved in the sellout, the project could be saddled with legal and state issues. Chaparrel plans, manages and coordinates all levels of escrow related activities for a successful completion of transaction.
She is also involved with the research and development, acquisitions, sell out and new owner support process of various condominium projects.
As part of this real estate team, Chaparrel brings professionalism, energy, organization, problem solving and great customer service in all aspects of the real estate transaction.
Applying the phrase "attention to details" is not a luxury but a firm requirement for complex condominium projects - something that Chaparrel excels in.
