The FoolProof FSBO Podcast

Understanding Title & Escrow (Easier Than Ordering Pizza)

Tim Street Season 1 Episode 12

Most FSBO sellers misunderstand Title and Escrow—and that’s why deals get delayed, fall apart, or turn into last-minute chaos. In this episode, you’ll learn how these two teams protect your sale from legal issues, missing paperwork, unpaid liens, and buyer uncertainty long before closing day.
 You’ll learn:

  • What Title actually checks—and why a clean title protects you from surprise claims
  • How Escrow safeguards the money so neither side can get burned
  • Why setting both up early prevents delays, stress, and last-minute emergencies
  • How Title + Escrow work together to keep your transaction legally airtight
  • The simple FSBO setup process that keeps buyers confident and your deal moving fast

If you want a smooth, safe, drama-free closing, understanding Title and Escrow is one of the biggest power moves you can make.
