Once you’re under contract, things tend to move quickly—and this is where experienced guidance matters most. My role during escrow is to manage the details, anticipate issues, and keep the process moving smoothly so you can stay focused on the bigger picture.
During escrow, I coordinate inspections, review disclosures, manage timelines, and negotiate repairs or credits when appropriate. I stay in close communication with escrow and the other side to ensure everything progresses efficiently and without unnecessary friction. You’ll always know what’s happening and what’s coming next.
Below is a high-level look at how escrow typically unfolds. While timelines can vary, this gives you a clear framework of what to expect:
Week 1:
• Open escrow and deposit earnest money
• Schedule inspections
• Begin disclosure review
Week 2:
• Complete inspections
• Negotiate repairs or credits
• Loan processing underway
Week 3:
• Appraisal ordered and completed
• Loan approval progresses
• Contingencies addressed
Week 4–5:
• Final walkthrough
• Sign loan and escrow documents
• Close escrow and receive keys
Whether you’re purchasing with cash or financing, I’ll guide you through each step, manage the details, and ensure the process remains smooth, transparent, and well-paced. If at any point you’d like to slow things down or explore options more carefully, that’s always part of the conversation.
