Closing Tips for Sellers

You must bring "good funds" to closing. This means that you must bring these funds in the form of a cashier's or bank check, Georgia closing attorney's escrow check, or wire transfer. We can not accept your personal check for these funds. If you plan to bring a cashier's or bank check, remember to allow time to obtain that check during banking hours prior to closing.

If you bring one of these kinds of checks to closing, have the check made out to yourself. You can then endorse the check over to our escrow account at closing.

If you are arranging for your funds to be wire transferred, it is best to arrange for the wire to occur the day before closing. Wires can get delayed, and your closing will not occur until your money has been received. Call our office to get our wire transfer instructions.

Your cashier's check or wire transfer does not have to be the exact amount. If it is too much, we will give you a check for the difference at closing. If it is too little, you can give us a personal check for the difference provided it is less than $500.00.
