What Is My Role In Escrow?
Both buyers and sellers have responsibilities during the escrow process and must do their respective parts to keep the transaction moving.
The Sellers:
• Carry out all escrow instructions.• Provide the deed, via the escrow officer and listing agent.
• Submit all other required paperwork as outlined in the Purchase Agreement, such as insurance policies, home warranties, tax receipts, etc. (The settlement agent will provide clear instructions on what is needed.)
The Buyers:

• Approve inspection reports, preliminary title reports, and other items detailed in the Purchase Agreement.
• Execute a Deed of Trust/Mortgage to secure the loan.

Dickinson County Nature Center
A place for all ages, the Dickinson County Nature Center is a place that provides learning about nature, animals, and the environment. With many events for the community throughout the year, locals and tourists alike are sure to enjoy a fun time here. The ever popular Bee and Butterfly festival is a blast for kids, and kids at heart. We've enjoyed releasing a monarch butterfly, learning about different insects, and hearing about how bees make honey. They also provide classes for toddlers and kids to learn more about animals and nature. We always have fun checking out the animals they have at the Nature Center, and learning more each time we go.
