Selling and buying at the same time
Many sellers are also purchasing their next home. Timing the closing dates, bridge financing, and fund transfers correctly matters — we help coordinate both transactions so one doesn't jeopardize the other.
The statement of adjustments
Property taxes, condo fees, and other costs are prorated between buyer and seller as of the closing date. We prepare this statement so you know exactly what your net proceeds will be before you close.
Discharging your existing mortgage
If you have an existing mortgage, it needs to be paid out and formally discharged from title at closing. We obtain your lender's payout statement early so there are no delays or surprises at closing.
