In real estate, no transaction is complete without the critical processes of title and escrow services. Whether you're buying your first home, investing in commercial property, or refinancing an existing asset, title and escrow are the backbone of a smooth and secure closing. At Community National Title, we believe that success begins with trust, transparency, and strong partnerships.
What Are Title & Escrow Services?
Title Services Defined
Title services involve researching and verifying the legal ownership of a property. The title company ensures that the seller has the legal right to sell the property and that there are no outstanding liens, encumbrances, or disputes attached to the title. This process includes a title search, which examines public records, deeds, court judgments, tax records, and more.
Once the title is verified, the title company issues title insurance to protect the buyer (and often the lender) against future claims or defects in the title that were unknown at the time of sale.
Escrow Services Defined
Escrow services involve a neutral third party (the escrow officer or escrow agent) who holds all funds, documents, and instructions related to the transaction until all agreed-upon terms are met. Escrow ensures that:
The buyer’s deposit is safely held.
The seller only receives payment once the title is clear and all conditions are satisfied.
The closing documents are correctly signed and filed.
The escrow agent coordinates closely with the buyer, seller, real estate agents, title company, and lenders to manage timelines and protect everyone's interests.
