Contact your attorney. Under Ohio's rules governing attorney conduct, your attorney must maintain a copy of the funds maintained on your behalf in trust (the escrow account) for a period of seven years. Request a copy of the account records and ask for the status of the payments made on your behalf.
Your closing statement and all other escrow papers should be kept virtually forever for income tax purposes. Your accountant will need the information about the sale or purchase of the property. IRS and other agencies may require you to prove your costs and/or profit on the sale of any property. The closing statement will assist in this task. Do not rely on your escrow holder retaining the escrow file so that you can always call and get copies of the closing statement.. Most escrow holders will be destroying the files after the statutory retention period, usually five years.
