Five Hot Tips for a Successful Real Estate Closing

Here are five hot tips for a successful closing from a San Diego Transaction Coordinator:

  1. Check the property profile before taking the listing. If yours is the listing side, you will want to carefully review the property profile and make sure that the individuals named on the property profile are those who are signing the listing paperwork. For example, if the property is in a trust, you may need to use the Trust Listing Agreement.
  2. Prepare disclosures early. If yours is the listing side, have the seller complete the disclosures prior to accepting an offer. According to the contract, the seller has only 7 days after acceptance to provide disclosures to the buyer, so it’s a great help when these forms are already completed.
  3. Order HOA documents early. Homeowner’s Associations often charge high fees for rush orders on HOA documents and may take up to 10 days to get the documents, so it is a good idea to order HOA documents early in the process.
  4. Calendar events and important dates. On the date of acceptance of the offer, make a calendar of important events and dates in your transaction. Add the date of contingency removal, the date disclosures are due to the buyer, the date of acceptance, and any other important dates. Be mindful of the calendar so that your client is always protected throughout the transaction.
  5. Hire a transaction coordinator. If you don’t know what you are doing or do not feel confident with the paperwork, hire an experienced transaction coordinator. This will save you tons or time and loads of stress.
