Very soon we should receive what’s called the Clear to Close from your mortgage lender and underwriter. What does Clear to Close mean? Clear to Close means that the lenders and underwriters have looked at all of the paperwork, your bank accounts, etc. and have approved the loan.  By giving us the Clear to Close they are saying we can move forward with the closing and that they will fund the purchase of your new home, which is great news!

You should also be on the lookout for the closing disclosure from your lender. That needs to be signed 3 business days before settlement. 

Next, I’ll schedule the final walk through of your new home, which is usually conducted right before settlement.
