Who we are

Central Colorado Title & Escrow is the hometown title and escrow company for the upper Arkansas and Wet Mountain valleys — family-owned, locally staffed, and rooted here since 2002.

Title in these mountains isn't a Front Range subdivision lot. Water rights, ditch easements, mining claims, conservation easements, and 35-acre splits show up in these chains and change what a buyer actually owns. Our examiners read them locally — not from a national processing center — and tell you in plain language what conveys and what's reserved.

You get one local point of contact, clear fees, a typical three-business-day title turnaround, and the option to close in person, in Denver, or remotely with a notary. Loop us in early and we'll move quickly. Local Roots. Modern Approach.

What we do

Title, escrow, and settlement — handled locally.

One team for the whole transaction, from the first title commitment to the final signature.

01

Title insurance

Owner's and lender's policies backed by national underwriters, with local title search, examination, and curative work on homes, ranches, and vacant land.

02

Escrow & settlement

Neutral escrow, earnest-money handling, and a clean, wire-fraud-protected settlement — your funds and documents managed start to finish.

03

Closings of every kind

Purchase, refinance, FSBO, and new-construction / builder closings — in person at our offices, in Denver, or remotely with a notary.

  • Mining claims & conservation easementsThe encumbrances that national processing centers miss — including off-line, pre-1981 county records.
  • Wire-fraud-protected closingsVerified instructions and secure settlement on every file.

Good to know

Title & escrow — common questions

Straight answers. Informational only — not legal advice.

Who pays for title insurance in Colorado?

It's negotiable and set by the purchase contract. In much of Central Colorado the seller customarily provides the owner's policy, while the buyer pays for the lender's policy — but your contract controls. We'll walk you through exactly who pays what on your file.

How fast is your title turnaround?

Our typical turnaround is three business days. Curative work usually adds two to four days depending on what surfaces. Timelines are typical, not guaranteed — loop us in early and we'll move quickly.

Do I have to close in person?

No. About 80% of our closings happen in person at our Salida, Buena Vista, and Westcliffe offices — but we're just as comfortable closing in Denver or remotely with a notary.

Do you handle ranch, land, and water rights?

Routinely. Water rights, ditch easements, mining claims, conservation easements, and large-acreage splits are everyday work for our local examiners.
