A pre-closing checklist is an essential tool in the home-buying process. I urge all of my clients to review it prior to their the closings in order to ensure smooth transactions.
Have you...
kept your finances clean?
returned all phone calls and paperwork?
been communicating with your agent weekly?
reviewed the survey?
reviewed the commitment for title?
reviewed the settlement statement?
confirmed the funds for closing?
bought homeowners insurance?
arranged for utility services?
conducted your final walkthrough?
made moving arrangements?
provided change of address information to pertinent people and companies?
Answering these questions will help ensure your closing will run smoothly. Congratulations on your new home!
