Moving In
Closing Day
You’re almost there—time to get the keys, but not before we take care of a few final details.
- Final Walk-Through
Usually done the day before or morning of closing, the walk-through is your chance to:
- Confirm the property’s condition matches when you last saw it.
- Verify agreed-upon repairs are complete.
- Ensure no unwanted items were left behind.
- Check that everything included in the sale is still present.
It’s not about nitpicking—it’s about making sure there are no surprises when you take possession.
- Home Services & Utilities
We’ll provide a quick-reference list of utility companies and service providers so you can switch everything into your name right after closing.
- Be Ready for the Unexpected
Even this late in the game, small hiccups can happen—a missing appliance manual, a last-minute repair issue, or a delayed document. I’m here to troubleshoot quickly and keep the closing on track without adding stress.
- The Closing Itself
At closing, the settlement statement (a detailed breakdown of every dollar in the transaction) will be reviewed and signed by you, the seller, and the closing agent.
If financing, you’ll also sign your lender’s final documents. Can’t attend in person? Remote or “mail-away” closings can be arranged with advance notice.
Funds:
- Wire directly to the closing agent’s escrow account or
- Bring a certified bank check for the amount shown on the settlement statement.
The seller will hand over all keys, fobs, remotes, and any other essentials so you can walk out ready to move in.
