What Are Escrow & Settlement Services?
The escrow/settlement function means holding funds and documents in trust until all contractual conditions are met, then executing disbursements, recording the deed, and completing the legal transfer of ownership. Our role is to coordinate with all parties (buyers, sellers, lenders, agents, title) to make sure nothing is missed and the closing happens smoothly.
What You Can Expect
- Neutral Escrow Management: We securely hold buyer deposits, release funds only when all conditions are satisfied.
- Document Handling & Coordination: We gather, review, and prepare necessary documents, ensuring they meet legal and lender requirements.
- Lien Payoffs & Disbursements: We request and manage payoff of liens, taxes, HOA dues, and other obligations.
- Final Settlement Statement: We produce a detailed closing statement showing all credits, debits, and net proceeds.
- Recording & Title Transfer: Once everything is signed, we record the deed and related documents with the county, finalizing ownership.
