Close of Escrow with Dream Builder Real Estate Group

As you approach the final step in the sale of your home—the closing of escrow—it’s important to have an experienced team on your side to ensure everything goes smoothly. At Dream Builder Real Estate Group, we understand that closing a sale can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially when there are multiple moving parts. Our highly trained and experienced agents are here to guide you through the process, making sure every detail is handled with care.

The closing of escrow is when the transaction is finalized, and ownership of the property is officially transferred. But getting to this point involves more than just signing paperwork. At Dream Builder, we take a hands-on approach to make sure the closing process is seamless and stress-free for you.

Here’s what you can expect during this critical phase:

• Final Walk-Through Inspection. Typically taking place the day before or the day of closing, the final inspection allows the buyer to verify that everything is in working order and that the property is in the same condition as when last viewed. This is more of a formality but an essential step to ensure everything is in order.
• Cancel Home Services and Utilities. After closing, you’ll need to terminate home services and utilities. We will provide you with a list of useful numbers and contacts to make this process smooth and worry-free.
• Be Prepared for the Unexpected. Even at this final stage, unforeseen issues can arise—such as a last-minute repair or a delay in the buyer’s financing. But there’s no need to worry. Our team has encountered these situations before and knows how to resolve them efficiently and with minimal stress.
• Reviewing Closing Documents. The paperwork at closing can be extensive and complex. Our agents are well-versed in the details and will carefully review all closing documents with you to ensure everything is accurate and in order. We make sure you understand what you’re signing and answer any questions you may have.
• Closing Costs. There are a variety of fees and costs associated with closing, from escrow fees to title insurance and prorated property taxes. Our team will walk you through each cost, ensuring there are no surprises at the closing table and that everything is handled fairly.
• Final Funds & Keys Exchange. At the closing table, funds will be transferred, and you will hand over the keys to the buyer. Our agents will be there to make sure everything goes as planned and that the transfer of ownership is completed smoothly.
• Closing Day. On closing day, the closing agent will provide all parties with a settlement statement that details the financial transactions of the sale. Both you and the buyer will sign to certify its accuracy. If you’re unable to attend the closing, arrangements can be made in advance depending on the circumstances. If you are receiving funds from the transaction, you can choose to have them wired electronically to your bank or issued as a check at closing. Be sure to arrange for all property keys, garage remotes, and other important information to be handed over to the buyer at this time.
