Parties & Recitals
Identify legal names, entity types, and roles; include recitals that state the transaction purpose and any prior agreements affecting the transfer.
A clear Finance Funds and Property Agreement allocates payment and transfer risk, preserves chain of title, supports recording and priority of liens, and documents conditions precedent for funding. Proper drafting reduces disputes, enables accurate escrow handling, and creates an evidentiary record for lenders, title companies, and courts.
Typical users range across lending, real property transfer, and fiduciary contexts; the form adapts to purchase closings, secured loans, and asset transfers.
Use the agreement when funds and property are exchanged, pledged, or escrowed and when recording, lien priority, or regulatory compliance matters.
Loan officers, credit committee designees, or corporate officers who hold delegated authority may sign on behalf of lenders; corporate signatories should confirm board or resolution authority before execution.
Sellers, trustees, or corporate officers with recorded authority sign deeds and transfer documents; when signing for an entity, include printed name and job title and verify signature authority.
Identify legal names, entity types, and roles; include recitals that state the transaction purpose and any prior agreements affecting the transfer.
Specify currency, amounts in numbers and words, payment schedule, escrow conditions, wire/ACH instructions, and any holdback mechanics for contingencies.
Provide full legal description as recorded, parcel ID, and address; attach exhibits or plats to avoid ambiguity at recording and title insurance review.
Describe mortgages, security interests, or liens, including priority arrangements, subordination clauses, and steps to release encumbrances after payment.
Include seller and buyer representations about authority, title status, absence of undisclosed encumbrances, and solvency where relevant to fund release triggers.
