Seller’s Week Before Closing Checklist
- Contact your lawyer to ensure they have everything they need to date to ensure a smooth closing.
- Confirm they received the water test results if applicable
- Arrange the time to meet to sign the closing documents
- If you are moving out of the property, review your EXIT Realty PEI Moving Checklist to ensure everything is on schedule
- Call Maritime Electric 1.800.670.1012 to ensure the Purchasers have called to get the power in their name for closing day
- Call your oil company to ensure they have the oil tank fill up scheduled for the business day before closing
- Call your propane company to ensure they have the propane tank fill up scheduled for the business day before closing
- Double check on all scheduled appointments for service provider disconnect, cleaning services etc.
