I was an Escrow Officer at First American Title in Chicago, for 20 plus years. I managed real estate transactions from start to finish. I maintained escrow accounts, handled and balanced funds, prepared and processed all documents needed for closing, and finalized settlements. I served as a neutral liaison between all parties to ensure a smooth and compliant transaction, following company policies and procedures. My role required strong communication, sound decision-making, and the ability to multitask effectively in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
