Escrow Management
We make managing your escrow fast and easy.
Escrow Management Service is designed for individuals or organizations that act as escrow agents for their clients, including:
- Attorneys who handle trust funds, including IOLA
- Property managers who handle security deposits
- Title companies who handle escrow deposits
- Real estate companies who handle earnest money
