On closing day, sellers sign documents, the buyer’s funds are transferred, and ownership changes hands. Most of the work is done beforehand, so the day itself is usually short.
Deed, settlement statement, and other title company forms. Bring a government ID. In some cases, documents can be signed in advance or by mail.
Net proceeds, after paying off your mortgage, commissions, and closing costs, are typically sent by wire or check. Ask about timing.
Provide keys, garage openers, and any manuals or warranties. Update your address, and keep copies of closing documents for taxes.
Confirm wiring instructions directly with the title company by phone, since wire fraud is a real risk. Ask your agent to walk you through the final numbers ahead of time.
