The seller will need to determine which fire district their property resides and contact that fire district on what is required of them. The sooner the seller contacts the fire district the better, as most districts only have one Fire Marshall. 

Cal Fire

  Kensington, Pacheco, Port Costa, Rodeo, and portions of San Pablo, Richmond, and Walnut Creek.

Email Scam

Should you receive emails with the following subject lines, DO NOT OPEN/RESPOND:

“Signature requested by National Association of REALTORS,”

These are FRAUDULENT emails. CCAR members only receive dues requests directly from CCAR. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact Member Support at 925.295.1270 or [email protected].

Wire Fraud Scam

Beware: hackers are successfully obtaining access to information about pending sales and attempting to use email and other means to transfer funds to their own accounts. 

Do not respond to or take instructions from emails, texts, or other electronic transmissions concerning the wiring or transferring of funds without confirming by telephone or other direct communications the precise instructions with someone you can positively identify. 

Never wire funds prior to calling the escrow officer and/or broker at the number previously provided to you and confirming wire instructions before responding to any email or other electronic communication. 

Be sure you know where funds are going because if you do not verify the legitimacy of the instructions and where the funds and there may not be insurance or other means of restitution Verify, check, and make sure you are transferring funds to legitimate escrow accounts.
