PRE-CLOSING AND CLOSING CHECKLIST

IMMEDIATELY UPON ACCEPTANCE OF THE CONTRACT

Follow-up on any terms outlined in the contract (providing homeowner association paperwork, clearance letters, etc.). Make any repairs included in the contract. Provide the current mortgage loan(s) information and/or equity line of credit information to your agent (this should include your account numbers, contact information for the lender(s) and your personal information).

DURING THE HOME INSPECTION

You should not be onsite, but your real estate agent may be there as your representative. If possible, be accessible by phone to answer any questions. Provide your agent with keys to any areas (crawlspaces, attics, etc.) that the inspector will need to access. If the property is currently vacant, ensure all utilities are on before the inspection.

ONE TO TWO WEEKS FOLLOWING THE ACCEPTANCE DATE OF THE CONTRACT

Review any inspection amendment from the buyer with your agent and begin making agreed repairs. Provide your agent with your preferred closing time. Reserve your moving truck or schedule your moving service.
