Real Estate term of the Week - ESCROW

Escrow is a neutral third-party process that holds funds, documents, or property on behalf of the buyer and seller until all terms of the transaction are met.

🏡 In simpler terms:

Escrow is like a secure “middle ground” where the buyer’s deposit and important paperwork are held safely while everything gets finalized—like inspections, title checks, and loan approvals.

🔐 Why it matters:

- It protects both parties in the transaction.
- Ensures money isn’t released until everything is in order.
- Helps avoid surprises or risks before closing.

Once everything is verified and all conditions are met, the escrow officer releases the funds to the seller and transfers ownership to the buyer.
