Re: Escrow?
Money is being held until whatever the issue is, is taken care of.
In our case, our atty held x amount of money in escrow until the seller's atty takes care of the garage CO issue. Once the seller's atty takes care of the CO, she'll get the money being held.

Re: Escrow?

Re: Escrow?
I would check with your atty. We all agreed to a certain amount of $$ to be put into escrow, for this particular issue, at closing. I'm not sure about the logistics of money in escrow without specifics. Call your atty - it doesn't hurt to ask.
Sorry about the leak...good luck!

Re: Escrow?
Are you in NY? I am assuming if you are they held back the $$ for a certain reason. Did you let the old homeowner stay past the closing date? I am confused

Re: Escrow?
Yes the homeowner stayed in the house for 3 days past closing.
