Reaping a Real Estate Harvest

By Scott Akerley

Late summer is one of my favorite times of year. The days are long, and it seems like there is that much more time to appreciate all of the things that matter in life. Symbolically it is a time to reap what we have sown. Seeds that were planted months ago offer a bountiful harvest at this time of year.

It's a great analogy for the escrow business. We work backwards on a timeline that promises a "harvest" for our clients. In order to get to a successful closing in 30 days we know that certain goals need to be met in 30 days which means that certain conditions need to be met in 15 days and reports need to be filed in 10 days, which means the work needs to be started today.

While there are always unforeseeable events that can arise, if there is plan in place they should be easily overcome. Escrow should not be filled with surprises and last minute details.

If you are looking for an escrow that is free of speed bumps and devoid of drama we would be honored to have your business.
