What is Escrow?
Escrow refers to a financial arrangement where a third party, known as the escrow agent, holds and manages funds or documents on behalf of two parties involved in a transaction. In real estate, an escrow account is often used to secure and disburse funds related to the purchase of a property. The escrow process helps ensure a secure and neutral handling of the transaction, with the escrow agent facilitating the exchange of money and documents between the buyer and seller according to the agreed-upon terms.
What is Title Insurance?
Title insurance is a type of insurance policy that protects real estate owners and lenders against financial loss due to defects in a property's title or ownership. It ensures that the buyer has clear and undisputed ownership of the property by providing coverage for potential issues such as undisclosed liens, errors in public records, fraud, and other title-related problems.

We proudly issue title insurance policies via our underwriting title partners:
Fidelity National Title, Chicago Title, & Old Republic Title
**An independent title and escrow company collaborates with corporate underwriters to ensure the smooth and secure transfer of property ownership. By partnering with these underwriters, the title company gains access to comprehensive title insurance policies that protect both buyers and lenders from potential title defects or claims. The underwriters provide the financial backing and risk assessment expertise necessary to issue these policies, while the independent title company handles the local, on-the-ground aspects of the transaction, such as title searches, escrow services, and closing coordination. This partnership allows the title company to offer robust protection and peace of mind to their clients, leveraging the strengths of both entities to facilitate successful real estate transactions. **
