We do it once or twice a year.... As with the others, it's a charge. We started taking visa/mc a few years back it has cut down a great deal on the requests. The cc merchant fee's sting a bit but it's worth it to get your money now... We also do a lot business for people moving in from other areas so the cc thing works great.

As for the nuts and bolts of the billing... just make sure to get the escrow officer's name and give him/her a call and introduce yourself. That way, they'll already know you if/when they mess up. Overall, the billing end of it is easy. This is the stuff the title companies do everyday. The only problems come about when a deal doesn't close.
