Closing Day
You’re almost there! As closing day approaches, check with your agent to ensure all items are finalized. We’ll work closely with you to tie up any loose ends, making sure everything is ready for a smooth and stress-free closing experience.
Final Walk-Through Inspection
Typically held the day before or on closing day, the buyer’s final walk-through is to confirm the property is in the agreed-upon condition, with no new issues and no seller belongings left behind. This step ensures the buyer’s peace of mind and prevents last-minute surprises.
Cancel Home Services and Utilities
After closing, we’ll provide you with a list of contact information to help you easily cancel home services and utilities, ensuring a seamless transition.
Be Prepared for Any Last-Minute Issues
Even at the final stage, unexpected issues can arise, but we’re here to help. Whether a delay in the buyer’s loan processing or an unforeseen repair is needed, our team is equipped to handle last-minute challenges, ensuring that any issues are resolved swiftly and professionally.
The Closing Process
After the final inspection, you, the buyer, and the closing agent will sign the settlement agreement, which confirms the financial transactions involved and certifies accuracy. If you’re unable to attend the closing in person, we can help make alternative arrangements with proper notice. You can choose to receive your funds via electronic transfer or check, as arranged with the buyer. Ensure that all keys and any relevant property information are ready for the buyer at closing. Once everything is signed, the sale is complete—you’ve officially sold your property!

TIPS FOR SELLING YOUR INVESTMENT PROPERTY
Deep Clean for First Impressions
First impressions are crucial when selling a property. Before listing, invest in a thorough deep clean. This includes cleaning all surfaces, mopping floors, scrubbing bathrooms, and freshening up carpets and rugs. Consider hiring professional cleaners to ensure every detail shines, making your property more attractive to buyers.
Declutter to Highlight the Space
A clutter-free home allows buyers to focus on the property itself rather than personal belongings or mess. By removing excess items, you help potential buyers envision their own belongings in the space, creating a more inviting environment. Organized, minimal spaces often lead to quicker, more favorable offers.
Make Necessary Repairs
Addressing any minor repairs before listing signals to buyers that the property has been well-maintained. Calling in a handyman to fix anything that’s worn or broken reassures buyers and enhances the property’s appeal, leading to a smoother transaction and potentially higher offers.
Paint the Walls
Not only is painting a great way to clean up the walls but making the overall color scheme neutral will increase the appeal to potential buyers, making it easier for them to envision their belongings in the house - get rid of any bright, outdated paint colors and go with a neutral palette throughout the house.
Increase Your Curb Appeal
The outside aesthetic of your home is just important as the inside. Give buyers a good feeling before they even open the front door. Landscaping, mulching, flowers, pressure washing the driveway and exterior of the home are all simple ways to increase the value of your home.
Stage Your Home
Staged homes tend to fill quickly because they feel homier - if you have neutral furniture that you can leave in the home, do it, otherwise consider a professional staging company.
Depersonalize Your Home
You want to leave a few nice, framed photos around the house to make the home appear inviting and lived in, but in general, removing your very personal items, such as family photos will let the potential buyers see their photos in those places, versus yours.
