Escrow Types

Expert Guidance

Selecting the right escrow service is an important part of any real estate or business transaction. With so many escrow types available, it's essential to understand which option fits your specific situation. Our experienced team is here to provide clear, professional guidance tailored to your needs, ensuring every step of your transaction is handled with care and confidence.

Residential Purchase Escrow

Used when a buyer purchases a residential property. The escrow company holds funds and documents until all terms of the purchase agreement are completed and the transaction can close.

Commercial Purchase Escrow

Similar to residential escrow but for commercial properties such as office buildings, retail spaces, or industrial properties. These transactions often involve more complex contracts and due diligence.

Refinance Escrow

Opened when a homeowner replaces their current loan with a new one. Escrow handles the payoff of the existing loan and ensures the new lender's documents and funds are properly processed.

For Sale by Owner (FSBO) Escrow

Used when a property is sold directly between a buyer and seller without a real estate agent. The escrow company manages the transaction and ensures all legal and financial steps are completed.

Short Sale Escrow

Occurs when a property is sold for less than the amount owed on the mortgage. The lender must approve the sale, and escrow coordinates the approval and payoff process.

REO (Bank-Owned) Escrow

Used when a lender sells a property it has acquired through foreclosure. Escrow manages the transaction between the bank and the new buyer.

Probate Escrow

Opened when a property is sold as part of a probate case after the property owner has passed away. Escrow works with the estate administrator and sometimes the court to complete the sale.

Trust Sale Escrow

Used when a property is owned by a living trust and is being sold by the trustee. Escrow ensures the trustee has proper authority and processes the transfer.

Exchange Escrow (1031 Exchange)

Used when an investor sells a property and reinvests the proceeds into another property to defer capital gains taxes under a 1031 exchange. Funds are held by a qualified intermediary.

Vacant Land Escrow

Used when purchasing or selling undeveloped land. These transactions often include additional due diligence such as zoning, utilities, and access.

Mobile Home / Manufactured Home Escrow

Handles the sale or transfer of a manufactured home. These can involve different documentation depending on whether the home is attached to land or considered personal property.

Business Sale Escrow

Used when a business is being bought or sold. Escrow manages the transfer of assets, licenses, inventory, and funds between the buyer and seller.

Bulk Sale Escrow

Required when a business sells most or all of its inventory or assets outside the ordinary course of business. This protects creditors by ensuring debts are addressed before the sale is finalized.

Construction Escrow

Used during construction or renovation projects. Funds are held and released in stages (draws) as work is completed.

Holdback Escrow

Part of the transaction funds are temporarily held after closing to ensure certain repairs, conditions, or obligations are completed.

Earnest Money Escrow

Holds the buyer's deposit (earnest money) while the transaction is pending. Funds are applied toward the purchase or returned according to the contract terms.
