Does Opendoor have a preferred title company?

Yes — Opendoor works with specific title and escrow partners in each market to handle your closing. The title company assigned to your transaction manages the escrow account, title search, document preparation, and fund disbursement.

How Opendoor selects the title company

Opendoor partners with title companies on a market-by-market basis. The assigned title partner depends on where your home is located.

• The title company is identified early in the process — typically after you accept your offer and sign the purchase agreement.
• You will receive the title company's contact information in your closing documents and on your dashboard at opendoor.com.
• The title partner may vary by state or metro area based on local regulations and Opendoor's operational partnerships.

What the title company handles

The title company plays a central role in your closing. Their responsibilities include:

• Title search — confirming that the title to your home is clear and free of liens, encumbrances, or disputes.
• Escrow management — holding funds securely until all conditions of the sale are met.
• Document preparation — drafting the closing documents you will sign, including the deed and settlement statement.
• Fund disbursement — distributing the sale proceeds to you (and paying off any existing mortgage) after closing.
• Title insurance — issuing a title insurance policy that protects the buyer (Opendoor) against future title claims.

Tip: If you have questions about a specific document or fee on your settlement statement, the title company is your best point of contact. They can explain each line item.

Can you use a different title company?

In some cases, you may be able to request a different title company. Here is what to know:

• Availability varies by market — some states or transactions require the use of Opendoor's preferred partner.
• Request early — if you have a preference, raise it as soon as possible after accepting your offer. Changes become harder to accommodate as closing approaches.
• Contact support at 888-352-7075 or support@opendoor.com to ask whether an alternative title company is an option for your transaction.

Note: Using a different title company may affect your closing timeline. Opendoor's preferred partners are already integrated into the process, which helps closings run smoothly and on schedule.

What to expect from the title company

Once your closing is scheduled, the title company will:

1. Reach out to you directly with instructions for signing — whether the closing is in person, mobile notary, or remote.
2. Provide a preliminary settlement statement so you can review the numbers before closing day.
3. Coordinate the signing appointment and walk you through each document.
4. Wire your proceeds after closing — typically within 1-3 business days, depending on your bank.

I am a title company, escrow agent, or lender and need documents from Opendoor

If you are a third party involved in a closing and need Opendoor to provide documents, signatures, or payoff information:

1. Contact support and identify yourself as a title, escrow, or lending professional.
2. Provide the property address, your company name, and the specific documents or signatures you need.
3. For urgent closing-day requests, call rather than email to ensure priority handling.

Opendoor's transaction team coordinates with title partners to provide requested documents. Response times are typically 1-2 business days for standard requests and faster for time-sensitive closing items.
