An escrow holdback agreement addendum is used to “hold back” part of the sale price at closing until certain conditions are met by the seller. The document details the release conditions, the amount of money in escrow, and the third party who will be entrusted with the escrowed funds. Escrow holdback agreements make sure that the seller fulfills their post-closing duties, such as completing any repairs or settling outstanding property taxes.
