Abstract
An escrow accommodation system adapted for deployment in the offices of brokers, mortgage companies, lending institutions and title insurers to facilitate remote video-conferencing of potential buyers and sellers with independent escrow agents. The system includes a first client subsystem disposed in a first office. The first client subsystem includes a microprocessor, software running on the microprocessor for facilitating an escrow arrangement, a camera coupled to the microprocessor, and a display coupled to the computer. A second client subsystem is provided in a second office. The second client subsystem includes a microprocessor, software running on the microprocessor for facilitating an escrow arrangement, a camera coupled to the microprocessor, and a display coupled to the microprocessor. The first and second client subsystems are connected via a network. In the illustrative embodiment, the software includes code for receiving customer escrow data and displaying a list of escrow companies. In various alternative embodiments, the list is customized based on user data and/or broker data. As taught herein, the software includes code for establishing a videoconference between the first client and the second client via the network. The network may be either a public network such as the Internet or a private or virtually private network. The software further includes code for facilitating an escrow opening meeting online.
