Closing Day for Your Kansas or Missouri Home
As you approach the close of escrow, there are a few final tasks to complete to
ensure a smooth transaction. Your licensed Your Future Address agent will guide
you through every step.
Final Walk-Through
The buyer typically conducts a final inspection the day before or on closing day.
This walk-through confirms that all systems are in working order, unwanted items
have been removed, and all fixtures or items included in the purchase contract
remain.
Be sure to cancel home services and utilities the day after closing. You can reference the
service providers listed on your seller’s disclosure form to make this process easier.
Handling the Unexpected
Occasionally, unexpected issues arise—such as a buyer’s loan falling through or
last-minute property repairs. Our experienced agents handle these situations
regularly, ensuring problems are resolved quickly and with minimal stress.
Closing the Sale
The closing agent will provide a settlement statement outlining all financial
transactions and confirming accuracy. The buyer, seller, and closing agent sign this
document to finalize the sale. If you are unable to attend, notify us in advance so
alternative arrangements can be made.
Receiving Funds and Delivering Property
If you are receiving proceeds from the sale, decide in advance whether funds
should be wired electronically or issued via check at closing. Keys, garage openers,
and other important property information should be handed to the buyer at this time
to ensure a smooth transfer of ownership.
