Ray,
A couple suggestions, you may want to check at the loacal banks. Some places that do mortgage lending will also offer Escrow services. I use one here, they do not do it on a National basis but my setup fee was only $70 and ditributions are $1 a month. They will also do an automatic withdrawal from my T/B account. They send the coupon book to the T/B and perform any actions needed in case of late pays. They send me receipts each month and statements, also for $15 a month if I want when I get a bunch of them stacked up they will send me on Investor printout of all my accounts so I can see the overall picture.
The second word of advice. When I used to live down in Washington I used a place that said they do National Accounts. They were quite reasonable too. The name of the Company is Fidelity Contract Services, Inc. ; 1-800-955-4449, they can fax you some info on their fees and services. I found them to be reasonable and I have had no problems with them yet.
