Closing What is a closing?
Closing, which is also known as settlement or escrow, is the event where the title to a property is transferred from seller to buyer. Closing is typically held in an office, such as that of an attorney, title agent or title insurance company, and involves the completion of all the necessary paperwork to finalize the agreement between buyer and seller. In addition, all financial issues are settled at closing closing costs and once the title is successfully transferred, the necessary documents are prepared, signed, and filed with local authorities.
