Why do title companies provide escrow service?

The function of the escrow officer is very closely related to title examination. The buyer will be given an opportunity to review and accept a preliminary title report prior to closing escrow. The buyer's instructions will enumerate the exceptions or encumbrances allowed to remain on the property at closing. To assure compliance with the buyer's instructions, the title company must re-examine the records of the title at the time of closing and, ask the escrow officer to deliver the necessary title insurance policies and documents, and disburse the funds.

When an escrow is placed with the title company, the control of title documents and records is centralized under "one roof." The escrow officer has the complete facilities of the title plant at his/her fingertips.

How does the seller benefit from an escrow?

If the seller intends to use part of the purchase price to satisfy liens on the property, the escrow provides an efficient method for paying off the lienor.
