IT BEGAN WITH A

COMITMENT TO ANSWER

THE NEED FOR A HIGH

QUALITY, COMMUNITY

BASED ESCROW SERVICE. IT

CONTINUES WITH A QUEST

TO NOT BE THE BIGGEST,

BUT THE BEST.

IT BEGAN WITH A
VISION TO BE THE BEST

Most things that stand the test of time begin with a vision. The creation of North Orange County Escrow Corporation was no different. Joan Choice, a respected veteran of the California escrow community, set out to establish an organization that broke up the stereotypes and stigmas associated with so many such businesses. And so it began in 1986, with a commitment to answer the need for a high quality, community based escrow service.

EXPECTATIONS SURPASSED
What has become of the original vision has surpassed even Joan's high expectations. More than providing the level of service they set out to deliver all those years ago, the team of professionals at North Orange County Escrow Corporation has also blossomed into a valued community resource, taking a proactive role in fighting for fair and adequate state and national escrow legislation. NOCE's commitment to that fight took a dramatic turn for the better in mid-1997 when Joan was elected President of the American Escrow Association, a development that has remained a source of pride, information and motivation for the company and the community it so proudly serves.

EXCELLENCE IN ESCROW
As an independent escrow organization, NOCE need not answer to the broad sweeping business policies of a headquarters thousands of miles away. Orange County is our backyard, too. Excellence in Escrow means service that is responsive to the local market and the unique professionals who work it.
