Escrow is generally considered good because it protects the buyer and seller in a transaction.
It is typically very hard for a seller to cancel escrow without any valid reason for doing so. A change of mind is not acceptable.
Escrow verifies all payments. Once we confirm the funds are good, we will inform you that it's safe to deliver. As the Seller, you're also protected from any unexpected chargebacks, thereby ensuring that you won't fall prey to a scam.
The buyer in the real estate sales transaction generally makes the selection of the escrow holder/agent and the title insurance company intending to issue the title insurance coverage. A real estate broker should consult the escrow holder/agent before informing the principals that escrow will close on a certain date.
Typically, the role of the escrow agent will be played by representatives from a title company, mortgage lender or an attorney, but it can depend on the laws and customs in your state.
While the buyer or the buyer's real estate agent usually chooses the closing or escrow company, the seller can agree to the buyer's selection or counter with another choice. Although the seller generally agrees with the buyer's suggestion, the selection of the company is negotiable.
In California, the buyer may choose the escrow company.
Who Does The Escrow Agent Work For? Escrow agents act as neutral third parties in these types of transactions. They serve the escrow agreement, and as such, they don't work for either the buyer or the seller.
