ITG Commercial is unique in that each commercial real estate closing is handled by an attorney, which provides the added security and confidence that the transaction will be smooth and error free. As a neutral third-party, ITG Commercial prepares a settlement statement for each closing that reflects the intentions of the seller, buyer, and lenders for payments and reimbursements to vendors.
Construction financing is often a complex process involving numerous parties and various moving parts. Often, construction financing is handled in phases, known as draws. ITG Commercial manages construction draws and disbursements to ensure no unexpected liens appear on title to the property during the construction project.
During the construction loan disbursement process, ITG Commercial coordinates funding with the lender and disburses funds to the interested contractors, materialmen and suppliers in exchange for signed documentation evidencing no mechanic’s liens will be filed against the property. ITG reviews the required documentation, including but not limited to, the General Contractor’s Sworn Statement and lien waivers, and obtains an updated title report evidencing clear title prior to approving and disbursing each draw.
All commercial commitments and certificates are prepared by the ITG Commercial team. ITG Commercial issues commitments and certificates in reliance on an abstract continuation prepared by an ITG participating abstractor and a title opinion rendered by an ITG participating attorney. A title opinion must be uploaded with all application submissions.
