Non-Realty Escrow

What Are Non-Realty Escrow Services?

Not all escrow needs involve real estate. Non-realty escrow services provide a secure, neutral third-party holding arrangement for funds and documents involved in transactions that do not include the sale or transfer of real property. Common uses include the sale of a business, transfer of personal property, equipment purchases, settlement agreements, earnest money for non-real estate deals, and other transactions where both parties benefit from a trusted neutral escrow agent.
