CLOSING PREPARATION
-
Back title. It would be helpful if you can provide a copy of the title insurance policy that was issued upon your purchase of the property.
-
Mortgage payoffs. My office will obtain payoff statements for any mortgages and lines of credit.
-
Walk-through. Performed by the buyers prior to closing. The home should be empty and in broom-clean condition for the walk-through.
-
Utilities. All utilities should be active at the time of the walk-through. Do not have the water, gas, or electric service terminated until after the closing.
-
Closing Documents. Prior to the scheduled closing date I’ll ask you to visit my office to pre-sign the documents for the closing. If you are out of State I will make arrangements to get the documents to you to sign, notarize and return.
-
Closing figures. Prior to the closing we will go over all of the closing figures, including mortgage payoffs, all expenses of the sale, and the final net proceeds.
