The choice of escrow agent is typically agreed upon by the buyer and seller. However, the specific preferences can vary depending on local practices and negotiations between the parties.
After the buyer and seller agree to terms of a sale, the transaction goes into escrow, which can take several weeks (30-45 days or more) to reach closing. Escrow can be opened by the buyer or the seller's real estate agent.
The cancellation provisions are found in Paragraphs 14C (1) and (2), and in Paragraph 14E of the CA-RPA. Regardless of the reason, the seller must give some type of notice to the buyer, however (either a Notice to Perform or a Demand to Close Escrow) before the seller can cancel.
Typically, funds are disbursed the same or next business day following the completion of the transaction. Wire Transfers and checks sent by express delivery within the U.S. are received within one business day. Wire Transfers sent internationally can take three to five business days to be received.
If you back out without cause, the buyer can bring legal action for breach of contract. That means you could be facing a lawsuit where the buyer seeks compensation. Depending on the buyer, the lawsuit may seek financial compensation or even specific performance, forcing you to sell your home.
In essence, an escrow is a type of legal holding account for funds or assets, which won't be released until certain conditions are met. The escrow is held by a neutral third party, which releases it either when those predetermined contractual obligations are fulfilled or an appropriate instruction is received.

It is typically very hard for a seller to cancel escrow without any valid reason for doing so. A change of mind is not acceptable. A good real estate attorney will be able to help the buyer push the sale through with aid from the court if need be.
Close of escrow may take anywhere from 30 to 60 days depending on factors like inspections, missing paperwork or issues with the title. For example, if there is a lien on the property, the transaction may be stalled until this is resolved.
