Closing or Settlement >As Closing Approaches

If you are selling a house that is under contract and scheduled to close in a few weeks, what can you do to make the transfer of ownership as easy as possible for you and your buyers?

Keep in close contact with your real estate agent so that you will know if there are any changes in the closing schedule. On the day the property changes hands, your house should be empty, clean and ready for the buyer. Contact all of the utility companies to let them know that you are moving and give the service company the buyer's name (the buyer must follow up with calls to confirm). Don't turn off the gas or electricity because the buyers need to confirm that the appliances are in working order. Let your insurance company know ahead of time that you are selling the house and arrange for your coverage to be transferred to your new home. The most important thing is to start the process well in advance in order to avoid any last-minute complications.

During my nearly 20 years as a Realtor, I have closed transactions in many different market conditions. Because the real estate industry has become more sophisticated and challenging, you need a professional who understands the business and is positioned to stay ahead of the game. My grasp of the local real estate market will provide you with invaluable insights into buying or selling your home.

I constantly research the market so that I know how your property should be priced effectively for sale. And if you're buying, my knowledge of the neighborhood will help you choose the perfect home. I've been awarded a Lifetime membership in the New Jersey Association of Realtors' Distinguished Sales Club. I'm a member of the West Essex Board of Realtors and Garden State Multiple Listing Service. I'm a full-time Realtor since 1984, and I've closed more than $35 million worth of transactions since 2000.
