Definition
Florida Statute 626.8473(4)requires title agents to maintain an escrow account and deposit funds in to that escrow account. Florida Administrative Code Rule 69O-186.008 requires that a title insurer or a title agent disburse on "collected funds". "Collected Funds" are defined as funds deposited and finally settled and credited to the insurer's or title agent's escrow account.
