WHAT CAN I EXPECT TO HAPPEN ON CLOSING DAY?

Then a closing agent will present you with a list of the money that you owe and any money that the seller owes you, as per your agreement. The sellers also has to provide you with proof of inspection and let you know about any warranties on the products within the house.

After this, you can sign the mortgage agreement, which basically states that if you miss any payments or default in any way, the lender has the right to sell your property and then apply any money that is made on the deal against what you owe, plus any expenses associated with this process. Your mortgage also states that you promise to repay the loan in full and the seller will then give you the signed deed to the house.

You will then pay the lender anything that is owed, such as closing costs, and the lender will give you a receipt of all of the items that you have paid for. Once all of this is recorded, you own the house and you are free to do what you want with it.
