What is the meaning of escrow money?

Escrow money refers to funds held by a third party on behalf of two other parties involved in a transaction, typically until certain conditions are met. This arrangement ensures that the buyer's payment is secure and that the seller fulfills their obligations before the funds are released. It is commonly used in real estate transactions to protect both parties during the buying and selling process. Once all conditions are completed, the escrow agent disburses the funds accordingly.
