Closing Day
If you have come this far, then this means that it is almost time for a congratulations . . . but not yet!There are a few loose ends that your agent will guide you through.
Final Walk-Through Inspection.
This is your opportunity to walk through the property to verify that all is in working order, everything is the same as when you last viewed the property, and that everything included in your purchase is still at the house. The property should be empty of the seller’s personal items, and broom swept. The final walk-through generally takes place a day before, or on the day of the closing.
Be Prepared.
We are ready to assist you should an unforeseen glitch pop up, even at this last stage. If something at the property breaks down, or some other minor detail – no need to worry. We have encountered these problems before so we know how to handle them efficiently and we are still there to help.
Closing.
The closing agent will furnish all parties involved with a settlement statement, which summarizes and details the financial transactions enacted in the process. You and the seller(s) will sign this statement, as well as the closing agent, certifying its accuracy. If you are obtaining financing, you will have to sign all pertinent documentation required by the lending institution.. If you are bringing funds to the transaction, you can elect to either have the funds wired electronically into the closing agent’s escrow account, or bring a certified bank check to the closing in the amount specified on the settlement statement.
