Closing on a home
Closing on a home
The final steps before you get the keys.
Get ready for closing
Closing is the final step in your home buying journey. It begins when your offer is accepted and ends on closing day when the paperwork is signed.
The closing process usually takes a few weeks and involves a group of home lending professionals working behind the scenes to process your loan.
There are also a few things you'll need to do before you get the keys.
Before closing, consider getting a home inspection. A home inspection can provide you with the insights you need before you buy.
Closing costs and fees sometimes catch home buyers off-guard. Knowing what to expect and how to plan can help make closing easier.
You found a new home, now it's time to make it yours. Get ready for closing day, from scheduling a walk-through to getting the keys.
