Real Estate Closings – Sellers

closing documentsLoan Payoff Information

We need the payoff information on your current mortgage. You can open and fill out the “Seller Information Request Form”  and forward to us. This form will be used to contact your present mortgage lender(s) in order to prepare them for the payoff. Please return this form as soon as possible with your loan payoff information. We need the name of your company, the telephone number, your account number and your social security number. Many companies require a 3-7 day turnaround, therefore it is very important that we get this information to order your payoff as soon as possible.

If the seller is a corporation, we will need a current corporate resolution that includes who will be signing at the closing and their official title, and you will need to bring the corporate seal to the closing. If the seller is a LLC, we will need a copy of the fully signed operating agreement and any amendments.

If any owner/seller of the property is using an existing power of attorney and will not be attending the closing, we must recieve a copy of the power of attorney at least three business days prior to closing. Further, if this power of attorney is acceptable to be used, the original power of attorney must be brought to closing.
