Review List
This review list is provided to inform you about this document in question and assist you in its preparation. This Escrow Agreement is fairly standard with partnerships. It protects the interests of the early Limited Partners by not allowing the partnership to go forward unless a certain minimum amount of capital is raised. Limiteds should be on the lookout for these kinds of agreements because they demonstrate a prudence on the part of the General Partner.
1. Make multiple copies. Keep one in your home safe. Give one to each related party (e.g., Limiteds as they sign up).
