For Sales Owner
We are here to help FSBOs every step of the way! We can help direct you to the necessary documents as well as help guide you through the entire process to ensure a successful close of your transaction!
In a FSBO transaction, the buyer and seller become the primary points of contract for the escrow. To open an escrow, we will need to understand the agreement (the terms of the sale) between buyer and seller. It is important to note escrow is a neutral party. Escrow cannot give legal advice and does not negotiate terms. We are here to facilitate and protect both parties to a successful transaction.
Mobile Homes
Mobile Home Escrows are completely different than Real Estate Escrows requiring different training, experience and technology, including the ability to successfully transfer mobile home titles through the department of housing. Our company owner is proud to say that she brought mobile home escrow processing into the Inland Empire area of Southern California.

Holding escrows do not involve the transfer or encumbrance of real estate (real property) like it would in the traditional sale and refinance transactions.
