Our Process for Residential Closings
Step 1: Title Review and Lien Searches
Every transaction begins with a thorough review of the property’s title. Our team identifies any liens, claims, or encumbrances that could affect ownership, ensuring the property is free and clear for transfer.
Step 2: Escrow Management
We manage all funds and documentation securely through escrow accounts, coordinating communication between buyers, sellers, realtors, and lenders.
Step 3: Title Insurance Issuance
After confirming a clear title, we issue title insurance policies tailored to your transaction. These policies protect homeowners and lenders from financial loss due to unknown claims or disputes.
Step 4: Closing Coordination
We facilitate all aspects of the closing process, including document preparation, signing, and fund disbursement. For clients needing flexibility, we offer out-of-office closings to accommodate schedules and travel constraints.
