In the sale or purchase of a pre-owned home, Escrow plays a crucial role in ensuring that all parties involved in the real estate contract meet the necessary steps and requirements. The following are some of the key responsibilities of Escrow in this process:

  • Escrow ensures that both the buyer and seller fulfill all necessary forms and instructions required to comply with federal, state, and local government regulations for completing the transaction.
  • As part of the transaction process, the buyer is responsible for depositing the funds required to cover the total sales price and any additional costs. In most cases, the majority of funds are obtained through lender financing. However, in some transactions, buyers may also assume the seller's current loan, secure financing directly from the seller, or pay the full amount in cash.
  • It is the responsibility of the buyer to provide all necessary documentation required by the new lender.
  • Escrow prepares a deed to the property, which the seller then deposits in favor of the buyer prior to the close of escrow.
  • Escrow orders the payoff statements for any existing liens encumbering the subject property
  • Escrow provides the lender with an opening package which includes an estimate to disclose title and escrow fees, escrow instructions, preliminary title report and other lender required items.
  • When the Buyer secures a loan, Escrow not only packages the loan documents for signature but also processes the package for funding.
  • Escrow ensures that all escrow funding conditions have been satisfied.
  • The seller provides all necessary disclosure reports and governing documents related to any applicable Homeowners Associations.
  • The new lender deposits the loan proceeds.
  • Upon completion of all Escrow conditions, the deed is recorded to transfer property ownership to the buyer. Additional documents, such as the lender's security document (trust deed), may also be recorded at this time. The sellers receive the net proceeds from the sale.
