Final walk-through & closing

Congratulations, you are now a homeowner!

In the State of New York, after all mortgage conditions are satisfied and the loan is cleared, a closing is scheduled to take place at the lender’s attorney’s office (or seller’s attorney’s office or Title Company, if there is no mortgage). Generally, the closing will take place two to four days after it is cleared to close. This time is needed in order to have the closing documents prepared and funds wired into the lender’s attorney’s account. Often wired funds are not available for early morning closings, especially if the wire is initiated the same day as the closing, so it is important to keep that in mind when scheduling to avoid delays.

At closing, the seller will sign and deliver a deed to you, conveying the real property. You will then sign the Note and Mortgage to secure financing with the lender, as well as a number of supplementary documents required by the lender. Closing usually takes about an hour, but it is not unusual to take longer. A bank or certified check will be required from you at closing representing the balance of any deposit owed and all closing costs. The amount of this check will be provided to you prior to closing by your attorney or lender’s attorney. When all closing documents have been properly executed and approved by the title company, and the balance of the purchase price is paid in full, the keys to the property will be handed to you and the closing is complete. You will have ample opportunity to ask questions of the lender, the title company and the seller.

Although, your agent is not directly involved in these final details, your agent will work diligently to make sure all mortgage conditions are satisfied, requirements are provided to the lender’s attorney for review and to assist with any last minute concerns and/or issues that may arise.
