Do Title Companies Handle Escrow?
May 09, 2019
Closing on a home is the last step of the long, complex process of buying a home. There are a number of professionals in the real estate business that can help you every step of the way, but not all of those professionals can handle every aspect of purchasing a home. If you are in the process of buying a home or you have already been through the process, chances are good you have some idea what an escrow account is and why it is necessary. The escrow account, in fact, is the central element in a real estate closing. It is often surrounded by a lot of mystery, however. Who sets up and escrow account? Who manages the escrow account? What goes into the escrow account? Do title companies handle escrow or is the buyer or seller responsible for handling the escrow account. Seasoned professionals will already know the answers to these questions, but new home buyers may find themselves completely baffled by the process.
The escrow account referred to during the purchasing and closing process of a new home serves a single purpose—to hold the many documents, funds, and other related material necessary for the closing of a real estate transaction. This includes the property title and any money that will exchange hands when the property is closed on. An escrow account can be managed by a title insurance agent, a lawyer, a notary, or a title company. There can be many people involved in a real estate closing, which can often become confusing in and of itself. This is why it's so important to find a company that can handle most or all of the services in a single location. To further complicate matters, the buyer and seller can use different agencies to handle their closing business.
