Dedicated Banking Expertise for Title and Escrow Companies

Title and escrow companies operate in a world where timing is everything. Payments must move on schedule, accounts must be opened without delay and questions must be resolved in real time. Your bank plays a direct role in whether deals close smoothly.

Western Alliance Bank’s Title & Escrow Banking group is built to meet that reality.

Built for the Pace of Real Estate Transactions

Our specialized Title & Escrow Banking team understands the intricacies of escrow account operations, the demands of real estate closing timelines, and the importance of direct access to a knowledgeable banking partner. Speed and certainty of funds movement are the core of your business. Our approach is built around:

Reliable wire payments

Facilitate same-day closings with payments through online banking, APIs and secure file transfer protocol (SFTP). Fed reference numbers are quickly available to confirm wires have been received.

Dedicated support team
