Due to some county processing backlogs, the official recording date on the documents may be a few days after your closing date. Your title insurance coverage begins on your closing date regardless.

However, sellers can negotiate title selection, and in some cases (such as new construction or certain investor transactions) the seller or builder may choose. If you’d like to work with RSI Title, let your agent know early in the process so it can be written into the contract.
Escrow means we hold funds (such as your earnest money) in a secure account until all contract conditions are met. At closing, we disburse funds to the seller, lenders, and other parties.
