Escrow Services for Sellers and Buyers Without an AgentStart Your For Sale by Owner Escrow

Selling your home without a real estate agent, also known as "For Sale by Owner" (FSBO), can be a cost-effective way to sell your property. However, it's crucial to understand the complexities involved, especially when it comes to escrow. A smooth and legally sound transaction hinges on proper escrow management.

What is Escrow and Why is it Essential for FSBO?

Escrow is a neutral third party that holds funds and documents related to the real estate transaction until all agreed-upon conditions are met. In an FSBO transaction, where neither buyer nor seller has an agent, the escrow company plays an even more vital role. They ensure the process adheres to legal requirements and protects the interests of both parties.
