Agreement on Terms
The process begins with mutual agreement on the transaction terms. This includes the collectible’s price, authentication requirements, and timelines. Once details are finalized, both parties sign an agreement to proceed securely.
Setting Up the Escrow Account
A dedicated escrow account is established with our platform acting as the neutral third party. Buyers deposit funds into this secure account, while sellers provide essential documentation, such as proof of authenticity and provenance. Funds remain secure until all conditions are fulfilled.
Verifying Conditions
CionEscrow.io verifies that all agreed-upon conditions of the transaction are satisfied. This includes arranging property inspections to confirm the home meets required standards, performing a thorough title search to ensure there are no liens or disputes, and verifying that the buyer has secured necessary financing. If any conditions are unmet, our experienced team helps resolve issues promptly.
Closing the Transaction
Once all conditions are satisfied, the transaction moves to closing. Buyers and sellers review and approve final documents. Funds held in escrow are then released to the seller, and the antique or collectible is officially transferred to the buyer.
Completing the Deal
The escrow process concludes with the buyer taking possession of the antique or collectible and the seller receiving full payment. Our services ensure every step is secure, transparent, and in compliance with trade regulations.
