When buying or selling a home, Title and Escrow services ensure everything goes smoothly behind the scenes.
Title
Title refers to verifying the legal ownership of the property and ensuring that it is free of liens or claims. You can take ownership with confidence.
Escrow
Escrow is like a neutral middleman. It holds onto important documents, funds and instructions from both buyer and seller until all the conditions of the transaction are met. This ensures that everyone’s interests are protected and no step is missed.
To put it another way, it’s a method of closing a real estate transaction in which all the required documents and funds are placed with a third party for processing and disbursement. It is the job of the escrow officer to conform to the laws of the state and act as a non-biased third party in order to close the transaction fairly and legally.
Together, Title and Escrow work hand-in-hand to make your journey to homeownership worry-free. We’re here to guide you every step of the way!
