Closing Agent

A closing agent is a professional who manages the final steps of a real estate transaction, ensuring all necessary documents are prepared and correctly completed. They coordinate between buyers, sellers, lenders, and other parties to facilitate the transfer of property ownership. Their responsibilities include reviewing contracts, handling the exchange of funds, and recording the new ownership with government authorities. Essentially, they ensure the closing process is smooth, legal, and efficient, acting as a neutral party to ensure all conditions are met for a successful transfer of property rights.
