Client resources
These resources bring together practical reminders for buyers, sellers, agents, and lenders before opening escrow, during the transaction, and as closing approaches.
Resource topics
Choose checklists, practical guidance, articles, or next steps.
Checklist 01
A strong start helps the file move forward with fewer delays. Having the right information ready early gives the escrow team a clearer picture of the transaction.
Property address and basic transaction terms
Best contact information for all parties
Agent and lender contact details when applicable
Any known timing concerns, deadlines, or special circumstances
Checklist 02
Most escrow delays come from missed communication or incomplete items. Staying organized during the file helps keep everyone aligned.
Review requests from escrow promptly
Ask questions early if a document or deadline is unclear
Confirm how and when funds should be delivered before closing
Keep the team informed if circumstances or contacts change
Checklist 03
Closing is smoother when clients know what to expect before the final days of the transaction.
Confirm signing timing and identification requirements
Review final figures and closing instructions carefully
Verify any funding instructions through trusted channels
Stay available for final questions or signatures if needed
If something feels unclear, ask before the file reaches a critical deadline. Early clarification often helps avoid unnecessary delay.
Save important escrow emails, signing reminders, and funding confirmations where you can access them quickly when needed.
When timing matters, call the office directly using known contact information rather than relying on a forwarded or unexpected message.
