Closing Day
If you have come this far, then this means that it is almost time for
Final Walk-Through Inspection.
More of a formality than anything else, the final inspection takes
place a day before, or the day of the closing. You will visit the
property to verify that all is in working order, everything is the same
as when you last viewed the property, that there are no extra items left
behind, and that everything included in your purchase is still at the
property.
Home Services and Utilities.
We will provide a list of useful numbers for the activation of home services and utilities after the closing occurs.
Be Prepared.
We are ready to assist you should an unforeseen glitch pop up,
even at this last stage. 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 in a
stress-free manor.
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 unable to
attend the scheduled closing, arrangements can be made depending on the
circumstances and the notice that we receive. 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. The seller should arrange to have all property
keys and any other important information for you at the closing so that
you may receive these items at this time.
