Does the perfect
Escrow exist?
Perfection is sometimes difficult to
achieve, especially in dealing with the complexities of the escrow,
the desires of the parties, and other matters that are often far
beyond the control of the escrow officer. It is human nature to
err on occasion, but your escrow officer has the background, training,
education, support and systems in place necessary to accomplish
the objectives of the escrow instructions.
In the event you have any problems
in the handling of your escrow, you should first contact the escrow
officer. If your problem is not resolved, you should next contact
the management or owner of the company. If the matter requires additional
attention, you can call the proper regulatory agency.
There are five different regulatory
agencies governing escrow operations in California:
- Superintendent of Banking 213-736-2471
- Department of Corporations 800-347-6995
- Department of Insurance 800-233-9045
- Department of Real Estate 213-620-5903
- Department of Savings and Loans
213-736-2536 or 213-736-2798
