An “escrow” is an arrangement where a third party is given the responsibility of handling the details necessary for a real estate transfer. We prepare documents, clear title, exchange funds, process payoffs, and record documents for both parties. Our escrow company holds legal documents and funds on behalf of a buyer and seller, and distributes them according to instructions. The purchase is officially closed when the new deed is recorded; ownership is then considered transferred from the seller to the buyer.
Nelson Escrow Service is for your protection and convenience during the process. We strive to make this process as smooth and easy as possible. We clearly and effectively communicate with all parties involved to mitigate confusion and questions. By eliminating the guesswork from the transaction, we make the entire process pleasant and error free.
