Construction escrow is a service that can help owners, lenders and contractors keep a project on track by providing a centralized, third-party source for managing payments and ensuring the successful completion of construction milestones.

In this free, CLE-approved webinar, you’ll learn about the different types of construction escrow agreements that are administered by a title company. You’ll also gain a thorough understanding of the documentation required by the agreements. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to direct your questions about the service to the webinar presenters, who are leading experts on the administration of construction escrow agreements.

Note: In April, Chicago Title conducted a related webinar that explored the key provisions of the Illinois Mechanics’ Lien Act and reviewed recent Illinois cases. To watch a recording of this webinar, called Construction Escrow: Keeping Your Project on Track in Turbulent Times, click here.
