Ready for your Real Estate Closing?

A real estate closing in North Dakota is a necessary part of every real estate transaction. Whether buying or selling through a realtor or directly from buyer to seller. While there may be a need for loan papers and other financial documents, the only document you MUST have to start your real estate closing is a purchase agreement.

• The closing agent receives documents to record in the the documents at the county recorder’s office.
• Seller receives payment for final payment for the remaining balance due to complete the purchase.
