Closing Checklist

Closings are pre-scheduled in advance for a time and place convenient for everyone involved. The day before closing, the Lender will send us final closing instructions, including schedules of fees paid & due, and other amounts to be paid at the closing.

From these instructions, we will prepare a Settlement Statement, a financial summary of the entire transaction, drafted in advance for your review.

We're always available to answer your questions about the closing, line items or other information on your Settlement Statement.

Once we've prepared the Settlement Statement for you, we'll let you know exactly what to bring to the closing, including:

  • A homeowner's insurance binder with proof of full first year coverage and payment for the first annual premium

  • A bank check payable to Signature Title, in the total amount needed at the closing

  • At least one valid photo ID

 

On closing day, Buyer and Seller will be asked to sign documents such as the Deed, the Note and the Mortgage.

Once your closing is complete, we will record the Deed and Mortgage at the appropriate registries and prepare whatever policies of title insurance the Buyer has selected.
