This ensures that all parties involved in the transaction adhere to the agreed-upon terms before the deal is officially closed. Escrow can also refer to the holding of documents or other important items until certain conditions are met.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Title\"><\/span>Title<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\nTitle, on the other hand, refers to the legal ownership of a property. When you purchase a property, you receive the title, which establishes you as the rightful owner. A title company conducts a title search to ensure that the property has a clear title, free of any liens or other encumbrances.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Differences\"><\/span>Key Differences<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\nThe main difference between escrow and title is that escrow involves the holding of funds or assets until the transaction is complete, while title refers to the legal ownership of the property. In other words, escrow is the process that facilitates the transaction, while title is the legal right to the property itself.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_FAQs\"><\/span>Related FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_What_does_an_escrow_officer_do\"><\/span>1.
