Blog > What Is Escrow in Real Estate?
Escrow is a neutral third-party account that holds funds and documents until both buyer and seller meet the terms of the contract. It ensures fairness—neither side can access money or title until all conditions are satisfied. During the escrow period, inspections, appraisals, and final loan approvals are completed. Once everything checks out, the escrow officer releases funds and records the sale. It’s the backbone of trust and transparency in real estate transactions.
