Ten Steps to Selling Your Home
Step 10: POST-CLOSING
Congratulations on the successful sale of your home. Hopefully, everything went smoothly and you will be vacating your house in the time frame that you had anticipated. You should make a list of all the items you will need to do to turn the property over to the new owners. You will need to do such things as make sure that all of the local services (i.e. electricity, gas, lawn care, cable, etc.) have been canceled or, if the new owner is going to retain some of the services, the name for the account should be changed. The property and anything assigned to the buyer according to the contract, should be prepared appropriately for the new owners.
An agent will save you time and money by helping you coordinate your move. They can help you develop checklists that you can use to make sure that everything is done so that your move goes as smoothly as possible.
