What is Escrow?

Escrow is an arrangement where a third party (Land Title Company) holds legal documents and funds on behalf of a buyer and seller, then distributes them according to the buyer's and seller's instructions. An escrow holder can provide protection and convenience for both buyer and seller during a real estate transaction. Land Title Company can assure all necessary prerequisites, conditions, and instructions by the buyer and seller are carried out and do much of the work on behalf of the buyer and seller without bothering either.

What is a Title Search and Title Insurance?

A title search is a process of determining from public records who has rights and legally owns the subject real property. The title insurance company will then at its own expense defend the title and pay losses within the coverage of a policy for any discrepancies discovered regarding the legal rights of the property owner.
