Contract To Close: A Real Look Behind The Curtain

In this episode of Keeping Tabs, hosts Zack Viscomi and Tabitha Heit delve into the intricate process of home buying and selling, focusing on the journey from contract signing to closing day. They break down the essential steps, including paperwork, inspections, title insurance, and contingencies, while emphasizing the importance of communication and the role of a real estate agent. The conversation highlights common mistakes buyers make and offers valuable insights for navigating the real estate landscape effectively.

Top Takeaways

You’re “under contract” when both parties sign — not when money hits escrow.
Inspections are for unknowns and safety/major systems, not disclosed/obvious issues.
Title & mortgage timelines are non-negotiable; organization wins deals.
“Pending” means contingencies are cleared; don’t change big financials pre-close.
Final walkthrough = function check + condition check; document everything.

Resources Mentioned

Local inspection categories: general home, WDI/termite, radon, septic, well
Township U&O checklist and GFCI/safety items (varies by municipality)
