Whenever it appears to the commissioner that any escrow agent subject to this division:
the commissioner shall dispatch a written notice and summary of findings, as referred to in Section 17415, to the principal officer of the escrow agent involved or to its manager of record; and such escrow agent shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to comply or otherwise effect such remedies as the commissioner may deem acceptable. However, should the escrow agent so notified fail to comply within five days of receipt of the notice, or as soon as it appears to the commissioner that no compliance is possible, or in the event prompt delivery of the prescribed written notice is impossible, the commissioner may forthwith take possession of the property and business of such escrow agent and retain possession until such escrow agent resumes business or its affairs be finally liquidated as provided in this chapter. The escrow agent, with the consent of the commissioner, may resume business upon such conditions as the commissioner may prescribe.
