California Escrow Done Right.
Linked Escrow is a licensed, independent escrow company regulated by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI). We protect your transaction from open to close.
Making Escrow
Easy and Affordable
The Neutral Third Party Your Transaction Needs
Escrow is the backbone of every California real estate transaction. As an independent, DFPI-licensed escrow company, Linked Escrow holds funds and documents impartially — protecting buyers, sellers, and lenders equally until all conditions are met.
As a DFPI-licensed independent escrow company — not a title company, attorney, or broker — we are exclusively focused on serving as a neutral fiduciary for your transaction.
Your earnest money deposit and all transaction funds are held in secure, segregated trust accounts — fully compliant with California Financial Code §17000–17606.
We prepare, track, and manage all escrow instructions, grant deeds, lender docs, and closing statements — ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Every Transaction Type, Handled with Precision
From first-time buyers to seasoned investors, we handle all California real estate escrow transaction types.
Single-family homes, condos, townhomes — all standard residential purchase transactions.
Streamlined refinance escrow coordinating with lenders for efficient closings.
Office, retail, industrial, and mixed-use commercial real estate transactions.
Land sales, lot splits, and development site acquisitions requiring specialized escrow.
Complex distressed property transactions requiring experienced escrow coordination.
Builder sales and new construction escrow with progress draw coordination.
For-sale-by-owner transactions where both parties need professional, neutral escrow services.
