STEP 6: THE CLOSING PROCESS
Hallelujah! You’ve worked through negotiations with your buyer. All the i’s have been dotted and all the t’s have been crossed on your legally binding contract. Get ready to close.
This part, you absolutely cannot do alone. Depending on what state the property is located, you’ll need to hire a lawyer, an escrow holder, or a title company to function as your closing agent. Depending on your needs, and those of your buyer, you will likely close in 30, 45, or 60 days.
Using an escrow holder.
Often, contracts in real estate require an escrow holder. The escrow holder is a third party that is impartial to the outcome of the transaction. Buyers and sellers both are protected with this arrangement. Legal protection is allowed for everyone involved in the transaction during the closing process. Usually, the escrow holder handles each of the necessary steps throughout the closing. Keep in mind that there are alternatives to an escrow holder, depending on the location in which you live.
