closing day on a house what happens on closing day for a seller when do you as the seller get your money after closing on a house that's what we'll talk about next hi i'm kelly vandiver i'm a real estate agent in the atlanta georgia area with keller williams north atlanta it's closing day part of what happens on closing day actually happens before you ever get to the closing table you want to make sure that you're bringing a picture id with you you may also need another form of identification the closing attorney will tell you what those requirements are in their email i also recommend that you bring a checkbook with you or a couple of counter checks if you don't regularly have a checkbook just in case something comes up what would the check be for it can be any number of things but just to be on the safe side bring a checkbook with you just in case you'll also need to bring all your keys and garage door openers to the closing table on closing day what traditionally happens is that all the parties come together at the closing table and sign the documents that transfer the title from you as the seller to the new owners depending on the law firm and depending on the lawyer involved and depending on coveted protocols you may or may not be in the same room as the person that is buying your house occasionally it happens that the person buying the house won't be in the same room with you either because of covet concerns or because they're not physically in the state at the time that the house is being closed on when possible and everybody is able to come together it really is a lovely site to see the interaction between the people selling the house that they've loved for so long and the new buyers who have fallen in love with the house themselves it can be an emotional time as you're letting go of the house that you lived in that you loved that you had so much life in that's why we focus on the next step why you're selling the house in the first place you've made this good investment and now it's time to get the proceeds from the sale so when do you get your money from the proceeds of closing on your house that same day if the person buying your house is paying cash for the house then they have already wired the money to the closing attorney and then the closing attorney cuts a check to you if the buyer is using a lender part of what takes so long in addition to signing all the documents is that we are waiting on the lender to fund the loan the closing attorney is waiting to hear from the lender they've funded the loan and that they've received the money at that point the closing attorney will either write a check or wire the money into your account so that's the process that's the process of selling your house there could be other complications of course that are involved and there are a lot of moving parts but one chapter has ended and another one is beginning i hope you found this series of videos helpful in making your move easier and understanding the whole home selling process flow for a guide on the overall process flow in selling your house follow the link below if you'd like some help selling your house in the metro atlanta area i'd love to work with you please reach out [Music] [Music] you
