Owner's choice of escrow?

Thanks ^Searchfunder member‌ ^Searchfunder member‌. ^Searchfunder member‌ as the buyer, I want an escrow in place. I like the suggestion to just use a note and potentially make claims against it instead. I worry that in today's frothy stock market, the amount could just as easily lose as gain 15% of its value over the course of a year.

Dan, I like ^Searchfunder member‌ have used the Seller Note as collateral in lieu of escrow account. I have and am using both, meaning if reps and warranties exceed the escrow amount, then the seller note is tapped into. In regards to your specific scenario, I don't see a problem with it, other than there would be fees associated with that investment and potential liquidity speed. The worse case scenario is that that there is major market correction and the value of the mutual fund plummets and you need to tap into the escrow as well. While the probability is very small, it is still a risk you would need to calculate.
