Often yes, sometimes no, and the decision is rarely the developer's to make.
This page explains who decides and what they generally look for. Which escrow agent a project uses, and what it currently requires, is not published anywhere. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
The developer sets commercial terms. The escrow agent holds deposits and answers to its own compliance obligations. The title company has to be willing to insure. Behind all of them sits a bank, with policies none of the others control.
Any one of them can decline, and a developer saying yes does not bind the others. This is the most common reason a crypto-funded purchase stalls after everyone thought it was agreed.
Buyers routinely spend weeks establishing that a developer will consider digital assets, then discover the escrow agent has its own view, and that view governs.
Funds converted to dollars before they arrive. Escrow agents are generally being asked to accept a dollar wire, not to hold a digital asset. That is a much smaller request.
A regulated venue with real account history. A wire from a well established exchange, where the account has existed for years in the buyer's own name, is ordinary. A wire from a newly opened account, or a venue the receiving bank does not recognise, is not.
Documentation that stands on its own. Acquisition records, account statements, and a path that reads cleanly from acquisition to conversion to wire.
Name matching. Funds arriving from an account in a different name than the buyer, including a company the buyer owns, creates work and sometimes a refusal. If a structure is involved it should be settled before funds move.
Assets moved through multiple wallets shortly before closing. A conversion routed through a venue the bank has no relationship with. Gaps in the record where acquisition cannot be shown. Timelines compressed to the point where diligence cannot be completed.
None of these mean anything is wrong. They mean the compliance work cannot be finished in the time available, and the safe answer for an institution is no.
Preconstruction makes this sharper, because deposits fall due on contract dates. If a compliance review runs long and a deadline passes, that is a contractual problem, and contracts are generally unforgiving about it.
Which escrow agent a project uses, and what it currently requires, is not published anywhere. It is exactly the kind of thing the desk holds. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will check the current position on any building we cover, including when the answer is no. Where a question is legal, tax or compliance, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
