How escrow and title work in New Jersey
A typical New Jersey closing runs through a title or abstract company: it pulls the recorded history of the property, lists the liens and exceptions in a title commitment, collects signatures and disburses the funds once the new deed and mortgage go to the recorder.
Residential contracts prepared by real estate agents in New Jersey carry a three-day attorney review period, and title agencies in the state handle the search, commitment and settlement.
The directory has 18 New Jersey companies on file — offices in Pine Brook, Summit, Lakewood, Little Falls and elsewhere. Check a company’s current license and underwriter before relying on it — the title business consolidates constantly.
