<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">Contract to Closing</h3>


<p><strong>01. Inspection Period &#8211;</strong> <span class="S1PPyQ">Before putting your home on the market, it&#8217;s essential to address any necessary repairs. A little bit of prep work can go a long way in making sure your home inspection goes smoothly and helps you sell your home with ease. </span></p>

<p><strong>02. Appraisal &#8211;</strong> <span class="S1PPyQ">If a buyer is getting financing, it&#8217;s inevitable that the home will be appraised. Don&#8217;t let your home appraisal take a hit!</span> Your listing agent should prepare you with a CMA and, if it&#8217;s an option, make sure you request an appraisal gap stipulation from the buyer.</p>

<p><strong>03. Buyers Mortgage Loan Approval &#8211;</strong> <span class="S1PPyQ">Typically a buyer has 35-45 days for loan approval, but this does depend on the terms accepted on an offer from the buyer.</span> A good tip is to make sure the lender has already taken the buyer through underwriting before accepting the offer.  </p>

<p><strong>04. Closing</strong> &#8211; <span class="S1PPyQ">Embrace the bittersweet nature of closing day.
