Questions to Ask the Seller at Closing
Questions to Ask At Closing
These are important questions you will want to ask just before the closing. They can be asked at the closing table if all parties are present and in the same location.
If your closing will not be with all parties at the same closing table you should email a list of questions to the Listing Agent 2-5 days before the closing.
- Where are the keys to the home?
- Do any neighbors have a spare key?
- Where are the garage door openers?
- If the garage has a keypad, what is the code?
- Are there any alarm codes we need?
- Is there any warranty paperwork on systems or appliances? Where will that be?
- Is there an HOA directory?
- Are there keys or access cards for the amenities?
- Are there instructions to a sprinkler system?
- Are there any special instructions about any of the appliances, thermostat, systems, etc
If the home was occupied during your walkthrough, confirm with the sellers when (date and time) the home will be vacant. If the home is tenant occupied be sure you have all of the tenant’s contact information.
