Bridgette Rist

Escrow Officer Fidelity National Title Greater NorCal
I started my escrow career in San Luis Obispo in 1989 at First American Title. I transferred and moved to Sacramento in 1991 when I got married to my husband, Eric. In 1999, I started with the Fidelity family in El Dorado County and have enjoyed working and living here. I have 2 children. My daughter is a recent graduate at Cal State San Marcos with her degree in Nursing. My son will be a Junior this fall at Oak Ridge High School. In my free time, I love watching films, spending time at the ocean and time with my family.

I am so happy to have been able to raise my family in this wonderful community.

Bridgette Rist did a fantastic job as always on this escrow. My seller had a lot of questions through the process...more than normal...from beginning to end. Bridgette was always happy to answer all questions by email or by phone call as needed. Her responsiveness and ability to communicate professionally (and patiently) is really appreciated, and it stands out even more when my clients need a little more TLC through the transaction. I've used her as my escrow officer over and over again with great satisfaction. Looking forward to our next escrow together.

Bridgette and her team were able to sign a buyer in the morning and fund and record the same day to meet our close date. They are awesome and I cannot wait to open another escrow with her!!

Bridgette and her team are great! Going the extra mile is standard for them. In the world of escrow having a partner in success is key & Bridgette is one of those partners to all that she works with. If you're looking to level up I recommend giving Bridgette and her team a try; you'll appreciate the difference!

We had a very tight escrow. Scott Nordell ran the loan docs back to Bridgette in order for the transaction to close in a timely manner. Great and professional teamwork!

I recently was involved in an escrow, I was representing the sellers and Bridgette was selected by the agent representing the buyers to be our escrow officer.
Bridgette did an outstanding job for all parties involved. Bridgette was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and a true professional. She was a pleasure to work with. In fact, on a Sunday I sent her an email with a question I had and she responded to me on Sunday. I am not sure if I ever had a response from an escrow officer on a Sunday. In addition, my clients at one time were thinking about doing a 1031 Exchange.... we asked Bridgette for 1031 exchange information and she enthusiastically & promptly provided it to us.
It was a pleasure working with Bridgette........
