Escrow services

A neutral third party you can trust

Escrow is simply an arrangement where an independent third party receives and disburses money and/or documents for two or more parties — with timing dependent on each party performing the agreed-upon terms of the contract.

  1. 1

    Prepare and collect the documents and/or funds necessary for a real estate closing

  2. 2

    Arrange for the satisfaction of mortgages and other liens

  3. 3

    Follow the instructions and satisfy the requirements of a mortgage lender or bank

  4. 4

    See that the conditions and contingencies of the purchase contract are met

  5. 5

    Close the transaction — documents signed, title and financing recorded in insurable form with the county

  6. 6

    Pay out escrowed funds according to the settlement statement

Title insurance

Where no good deed goes uninsured

We're a title insurance agency underwriting for Westcor Land Title Insurance Company. Unlike car or health insurance, title insurance is a one-time premium that protects you from problems that occurred in the past but surface in the future.

What it protects against

False impersonation of the true owner

Forged deeds, releases or wills

Undisclosed or missing heirs

Invalid or expired power of attorney

Misinterpretations of wills

Deeds by persons of unsound mind

Deeds by minors

Deeds by persons supposedly single, but married

Unpaid estate, inheritance, income or gift tax liens

Fraud

Lender's Policy

Your lender checks your credit and income, then goes a step further — making sure the property securing the loan is satisfactory. They do this with a loan policy of title insurance, paid for at the closing of your loan.

Owner's Policy

Defends against any lawsuit attacking your title, and clears up title problems or pays your losses. For a one-time premium it stays in effect as long as you or your heirs hold an interest in the property — the best title value you can get.

Amy Napoli

Owner · Escrow Officer · Licensed Title Agent

A Dublin, Ohio native, Amy began in finance in 1990 with a Columbus mortgage company, then moved to Cleveland in 1992 after earning a BA from Ashland University to help open a Parma mortgage branch. After ten years as a loan processor and originator, she learned the title business in 2000 helping start a Shaker Heights agency, became Operations Manager of a Strongsville agency in 2003, and earned her title agent license in 2006 — opening Innovative Title at the end of that year. She also handles notary signings.

Testimonials

What sellers say

Selling our home felt overwhelming until Amy's team took over. They explained every document, kept our money safe in escrow, and we always knew exactly where our file stood.
Michael · Home Seller
As a seller, I worried about wire fraud and hidden fees. Innovative Title walked me through every step, charged no fee to wire my proceeds, and closed right on time. I felt completely protected.
Kathy · Home Seller
From the first call to closing day, they treated my sale like it was their own. Secure, transparent, and always a phone call away — I couldn't have asked for a safer pair of hands.
