SURE, you can use the same escrow company. In fact, sometimes it makes it easier for everyone if it's the same company to coordinate all the fundings and vestings and closing time frames. Just make sure it's a mutual escrow company, not owned by the real estate firm or affiliated. Talk with the escrow officer and see if he/she will work with you. Some escrow officiers are great and are happy to help you others are owned by the brokerage company and seem very "well" .... like you are bothering them when you call to ask a simple question. If it's a good escrow company and a good escrow officer you most definietly want her/him to work both transaction; it will make it smooth for all parties.
