Closing day is the final step in selling your home, and understanding what to expect keeps everything running smoothly.
Leading up to closing, your lawyer will handle the legal paperwork, ensure all funds are received, and confirm that property taxes and utilities are up to date. You will sign documents transferring ownership and release the keys once funds are verified.
The buyer’s lawyer will transfer the purchase price, usually through your lawyer’s trust account. Once the transaction is complete, you receive your proceeds minus legal fees and mortgage payouts.
If you are buying another home immediately, coordinate closing times carefully to ensure funds move seamlessly between properties.
A well-prepared closing avoids last-minute stress and allows you to celebrate your sale with confidence.
