Closing The Deal

The Finish Line — and What Comes Next

Whether you celebrate with champagne or simply exhale with relief, there are a few important steps to complete before the keys are officially yours.

Final Walk-Through

The final walk-through is your last opportunity to inspect the property before closing. At this point, all contingencies should be satisfied and the seller's belongings removed. This inspection typically takes place the day before or the morning of closing.

Closing Day

When you are satisfied with the final walk-through, it is time to close. You, the seller, and the closing agent will sign the settlement agreement, which documents all financial transactions involved in the purchase. You will sign your loan documents and deliver your down payment and closing costs to escrow — either via certified bank check or electronic wire transfer.

Once all documents are signed and funds are confirmed, the deed will be recorded at the County Recorder's office and ownership officially transfers to you.

At RealiCare Real Estate, this moment represents more than the end of a transaction. It is the beginning of a new chapter — and we are honored to have been part of the journey.
