Escrow Officer -- Frisco, TX (On-Site)

About the role

First Source Title Agency is a 20+ year title and escrow agency licensed in 32+ states, with over 50,000 closings and a SOC 2 security posture that lender partners actually ask about. Our tagline is “We Put You First. It’s in Our Title.” — and that starts with the people running the closings. What that means for your desk: support behind you, dedicated curative, funding, and recording teams handle their lanes so you close files instead of chasing them; modern tooling with ResWare plus digital workflows and secure portals (not a fax machine and a prayer); national reach with a local desk, licensed in 32+ states so referral business and multi‑state clients don’t walk out the door.

Responsibilities

• Run residential and commercial escrow files end-to-end in ResWare — from contract receipt through funding and post‑closing
• Serve as settlement agent at closing: conduct signings, explain documents, and answer the questions that actually matter to the parties
• Review and interpret title commitments, clear curative requirements, and coordinate deed and release preparation
• Prepare and finalize Closing Disclosures and Settlement Statements; reconcile lender figures and hold the line when they don’t balance
• Manage escrow trust funds with discipline — receipting, disbursement authorization, wire initiation, and daily file balancing in accordance with TDI trust account requirements
• Enforce wire fraud controls and callback verification on every outgoing instruction, without exception
• Be the relationship for your agents, lenders, and repeat clients — the escrow officer they ask for by name
• Direct the work of escrow assistants and post‑closing staff supporting your files

Requirements

• Active Texas escrow officer license issued by the Texas Department of Insurance, in good standing and appointable to First Source Title Agency (TDI Form FINT09)
• 3+ years closing Texas files as a licensed escrow officer; residential required, commercial a plus
• Fluency with title commitments, curative requirements, lender closing instructions, CDs, and Settlement Statements
• Experience on a closing platform — ResWare preferred
• Active Texas Notary Public commission
• Sound judgment under deadline pressure, and the instinct to escalate a problem before it reaches the table
• Existing agent and lender relationships in the DFW market are a meaningful plus

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage with employer cost sharing
• Voluntary term life and AD&D through Principal
• 401(k) with auto‑enrollment and discretionary employer match
• PTO starting at 120 hours and growing with tenure
