What to Know If You’re in Escrow with Mr. Cooper
No matter whether you're a home seller or buyer, you'll hear the word escrow quite a bit throughout your homeownership journey. The escrow process is when a third-party holds something of value, usually money, in a special account until an exchange between a seller and buyer is finished. The escrow process can be used for all kinds of transactions, but we focus on how it applies to real estate. As a home buyer, you usually agree to put a percentage of the property price into escrow. If you're the one selling, you agree to take the home off the market while it's "in escrow" so it can be inspected.
Escrow carries a different meaning once you're in your home and enjoying it day in and day out. Your escrow account holds money that your mortgage servicer sets aside to pay your insurance premiums and property taxes. The account helps take away the anxiety of saving for and keeping up with those expenses. Contact one of our mortgage professionals today to talk about your former Nationstar escrow account or current Mr. Cooper escrow account. We're your partner in the homeownership journey, whether you're selling, buying, or settling in. See things differently with Mr. Cooper.
