A typical escrow process
The escrow process can vary. We outline some of the key stages that a typical escrow process would follow (for example, in the real estate space).
Stage 1
Developer, Funder and Escrow Agent agree to a set of conditions to be set out in what is called ‘the Escrow Agreement’. These protect all parties and offer payment security (guarantee of payment)
Stage 2
Funder’s money is held in an independent account by Escrow Partners, LLP. Both Funder and developer are protected.
Stage 3
As each pre-agreed condition is reached, MTCL receives the required drawdown notice. Once verified, the funds are released.
Stage 4
Once the final conditions of agreement are met then the balance of funds are released and the agreement is terminated.
