3 Things You Should Be Doing to Prep for Closings
Success in real estate is built on preparation—and the agents and lenders who plan now are the ones who dominate later. If you want your pipeline to run smoothly, there are three key moves you can make now to position yourself (and your clients) for flawless closings:
✅ 1. Review Your Vendor Partners
Not all title companies are created equal. Does your current partner communicate clearly and proactively, catch contract red flags, and stay ahead of closing obstacles? If you’re not 100% confident in the team handling your files, now is the time to evaluate your options. At The Title Link, we’re proactive—not reactive—and that can make all the difference on your transactions.
✅ 2. Tighten Up Your Contracts
Make sure your team is up to date on key timelines, seller disclosures, and financing contingencies. We’ve seen increased confusion in contract terms when clients are juggling multiple properties or travelling. Knowing how to structure clean, enforceable contracts (with the right addenda) sets you apart and protects your compensation.
✅ 3. Get Ahead of Title Issues
It’s not uncommon for listings to come with title quirks—old mortgages that were never properly satisfied, judgment liens, or survey discrepancies. These can all be addressed early if your title team is involved from the listing side or right after the offer is accepted. We’re happy to run preliminary title reports for you so you can identify and resolve issues before they become emergencies.
🧠 Pro tip: Transactions often involve 1031 exchanges, seasonal investors, and time-sensitive closing windows. Getting your systems sharp now makes those deals seamless later.
