Closing on your property
Final Step
Closing Day
It is almost time for congratulations! Before you receive the keys, there are a few final details to wrap up to ensure a smooth transition into your new property.
Final Walk-Through Inspection
More of a formality than anything else, the final inspection takes place a day before, or the day of the closing. You will visit the property with your agent to verify that all is in working order, everything is the same as when you last viewed the property, that there are no extra items left behind, and that everything included in your purchase is still at the property.
