About The Position

A Senior Escrow Assistant assists the Escrow Officer primarily with real estate
transactions and helps ensure each sale has all needed requirements for closing
before escrow officer releases buyer and/or lender funds to the seller. The
assistant does this by gathering the required information for closing, sending
lender requirements as requested before and after closing, conducting research
to ensure that the property title is clear and not under lien from another
lender, creating closing documents to be signed by all parties, and setting up
the timetable for the final closing. This requires the individual to have a
number of skills, including familiarity with computers and real estate software,
experience in the real estate industry, and effective interpersonal
communication skills to work with buyers and sellers. The position also involves
a significant amount of multitasking, so it's important for an escrow assistant
to be flexible and able to successfully complete several tasks at the same time.
