Job description

Job Title: Closer/Escrow Officer

About the Role

We are seeking a high-performance Closer/Escrow Officer to take total command of the production and documentation side of real estate transactions across multiple jurisdictions. You will focus on the technical execution of the closing-preparing documents, clearing title, and ensuring perfect compliance-while other teams handle direct consumer coordination and the final movement of funds.

What You'll Do

• File Ownership & Technical Management: Independently manage a high-volume, multi-state production pipeline, ensuring every file moves from contract to "ready-to-close" in strict accordance with lender and company requirements.
• Jurisdictional Compliance: Navigate the end-to-end documentation process across varying state statutes (including Louisiana's Civil Law and Arkansas standards), sales contracts, and lender instructions.
• Advanced Settlement Preparation: Prepare and audit Closing Disclosures (CD), HUD-1 Settlement Statements, and conveyance documents; ensure all state-specific taxes, fees, and credits are balanced with "to-the-penny" accuracy.
• Title Curative & Analysis: Examine title commitments and lender instructions to identify and proactively clear complex requirements, ensuring a "clear to close" status for every assigned property.
• Technical Stakeholder Coordination: Act as the lead technical liaison for lenders and realtors, resolving roadblocks and ensuring all parties have the accurate documentation needed for a timely closing.
• Document Organization: Prepare, review, and organize complete closing packages, ensuring all legal instruments are in recordable form according to local parish or county standards.
• Data Integrity: Maintain meticulous file notes in the technology platform, ensuring a clear and concise audit trail for every action taken on a file.

What We're Looking For

• Multi-State Expertise: 5+ years of experience in a senior-level closing or title role with a proven track record of managing transactions in multiple states.
• Technical Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of the real estate title process, TRID/RESPA compliance, and settlement software (e.g., Qualia and ReWare).
• Self-Directed Execution: Ability to take full charge of the production of a file, making complex, time-sensitive decisions independently while maintaining absolute accuracy.
• Analytical Rigor: Strong organizational, follow-up, and time management skills with a "detective" mindset for spotting discrepancies in legal and financial documents across different state formats.
• Process Efficiency: Driven to use technology and e-recording tools to streamline the production workflow and reduce manual errors.

Why You're a Fit

You are a "file architect" who thrives on the technical challenge of multi-state regulations. You take personal pride in a "perfect" document package and don't need a manager to oversee your workflow; you are a proactive problem-solver who ensures every transaction is technically flawless before it hits the closing table.

We offer a competitive benefits package, including:

• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• Health Savings Account (HSA)
• 401(k) Plan
• Paid Holidays
