Licensed and independent
Safeguarding the often-large amounts of money held in trust during a real estate transaction is a major obligation. It is our primary responsibility to ensure that all necessary instructions in the real estate agreement are executed.
Only a licensed escrow company is guaranteed by the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) to be experienced, bonded, audited, and required to conduct criminal background checks of all employees, owners, and stockholders. Licensed escrow companies must meet government requirements for financial liquidity and ensured trust funds for a minimum of $500,000.
Why choose an independent escrow company
Many people involved in real estate sales—from brokers and agents to buyers and sellers—do not realize they can choose an independent escrow company for their agreements.
By choosing Arden Escrow, a licensed independent escrow company, you can ensure that your escrow is handled impartially and that all parties are fairly represented throughout the process.
Unlicensed escrow companies can be owned by real estate brokers, mortgage brokers, banks, savings and loans, and title insurance companies. Arden Escrow offers buyers, sellers, brokers, agents, and lenders an alternative to escrow companies recommended by or connected to one of the parties involved in the sale.
