The escrow company, Freedom Title, was beyond professional. To avoid email scam I asked them to mail me all documents to my current house. They were also picked up at my house and returned to escrow. I could not be happier with how the remote closing went through.

My daughter and I in separate property purchases have used a buyer's agent to do the walkthrough using FaceTime. If a person is out of state or out of the country one may have no choice. In each case everything came out fine. Of course, if at all possible a buyer should personally do the walkthrough.
