You have a real mess here, and have not provided enough facts for us to even begin to sort it out. What in the world persuaded you to sign a new contract? Why no closing date? This makes no sense. The one thing I can tell you, however, is that if this is with one of the larger national title companies, you need to take this up with the office manager's county manager. If not illegal, the office manager's conduct is incredibly unprofessional. The county managers I used to work with at Fidelity National Title and Chicago Title would probably fire her on the spot for not remaining entirely neutral as the escrow holder.
