Two things you’ll want to do after you open escrow:
1) Transfer your Earnest Money Deposit to the Escrow Company – and they’ll provide you with instructions on how to do that.
The Earnest Money Deposit: – is a portion of your funds for the purchase – it lets the seller know you’re serious about making the purchase – and you have 3 days to make the deposit to Escrow after your offer was accepted and you entered into the real estate contract with the seller
2) Sign your initial loan documents – These are the initial disclosures the bank needs to provide and for you to sign before they can move your file to the next step in the process. – They’ll show the current terms of your mortgage, and also include state and federal required disclosures. – It’s important to sign these as soon as you can to keep your file moving forward to stay on your timeline with your contract.
