🏡 STEP 2: Earnest Money & Title Search

Now that the contract has been signed and escrow has been opened, it’s time for the next important step!

The buyer submits their earnest money to the title company, where it’s safely held in the escrow account until closing. This deposit shows the buyer is committed to moving forward with the purchase.

At the same time, the title company begins researching the property’s history by:
✔️ Reviewing the chain of title
✔️ Checking for liens, judgments, unpaid taxes, or other title issues
✔️ Working to resolve any problems before closing

This step helps ensure the property has a clear title, giving both the buyer and seller confidence that everything is in order for a smooth closing.

➡️ Stay tuned Thursday for Step 3 as we continue walking through the closing process!

🏡 Ever wonder what happens after a contract is signed?

Over the next few posts, we’ll walk you through the closing process step by step so you know what to expect from start to finish.

Step 1: Open Escrow

Once a purchase contract is signed, the first step is opening escrow. This is when the title company receives the contract, opens the file, and begins the closing process.

From there, we’ll start gathering everything needed to help make your closing go as smoothly as possible.

➡️ Stay tuned Tuesday for Step 2!

If you have any questions about the closing process, give us a call at 361-449-2841. We’re always happy to help!
