Close of escrow

As you approach the final stage of your transaction, you are just moments away from celebrating a successful closing. Before that moment arrives, a few final steps ensure a smooth and seamless conclusion.

Final Walk-Through Inspection

Typically conducted the day before or the day of closing, the final walk-through allows the buyer to confirm that the property remains in the agreed-upon condition, that all systems are functioning properly, and that no unexpected items have been left behind. While generally a formality, it marks an important final verification.

Canceling Home Services & Utilities

After closing, you will no longer be responsible for the property, so this is the time to discontinue or transfer services. We will provide a tailored list of contact numbers to assist you in canceling utilities and household services with ease.

Be Prepared for Last-Minute Details

Even at this late stage, occasional unforeseen issues may arise—a delayed loan, a minor repair concern, or an unexpected logistical question. Rest assured, our team is fully prepared to handle such matters swiftly and professionally. Our experience allows us to address challenges with calm efficiency, ensuring a stress-free finish.

Closing.

At closing, the escrow company will present a comprehensive settlement statement outlining all financial aspects of the transaction. The buyers will sign first, followed by you and the closing agent, confirming its accuracy.

If you are unable to attend the scheduled closing, escrow can arrange alternative signing accommodations based on your circumstances and the notice provided.

Should you be receiving proceeds from the sale, you may choose to have the funds wired directly to your financial institution or issued as a check at closing. Please ensure that all property keys, garage remotes, gate fobs, and any essential information for the new owners are available to be transferred at this time.
