Escrow inspections & appraisals

Escrow is a neutral third-party service that ensures all financial and legal conditions of the home purchase are met before closing.

• The buyer submits an earnest money deposit.
• The title company holds funds and documents until all conditions are satisfied.
• Both parties work to complete inspections, appraisals, and loan approval.

A home inspection identifies potential issues with the property before finalizing the purchase.

• Structural integrity, roof condition, electrical, and plumbing systems are evaluated.
• Buyers may negotiate repairs or request seller concessions.
• Specialized inspections (termite, mold, sewer, septic) may be recommended.

• Lenders require an appraisal to verify the home’s market value.
• If the appraisal is lower than the purchase price, renegotiation may be necessary.
• Once the appraisal and final loan approval are complete, the transaction moves to closing.
