Get The Necessary Documents In Order This includes the deed, title insurance policy, property survey, tax documents, disclosures, HOA bylaws (if applicable), etc. Making these documents available upfront will demonstrate you have clear title to the property and decrease buyer concerns during the transaction process.
Unlike some states that allow title companies to facilitate home sales, residential property sales in North Carolina must be processed by a residential real estate attorney. In addition to the buyer, seller, and their attorneys, real estate agents and either an escrow or settlement agent may be involved in the closing.
This date is set by the buyer and seller during contract negotiations, and is an important milestone in the homebuying process. The parties may choose a possession date that falls immediately after closing, or after a certain timeframe such as 15, 30, or 60 days after closing. This affords the seller more time to move.
Writing your own contracts is perfectly possible, and legal. But it's also an incredibly bad idea. There's two reasons for this: Property law is complicated. Because it's such a fundamental part of legislation, it's often lots and lots of different laws layered on top of each other.
For example, the North Carolina “standard” residential sales contract (Form 2-T) allows for a delay period that extends for up to fourteen (14) days beyond the agreed settlement date without penalty to the delaying party, provided they are acting in good faith to close the transaction.
Ing to paragraph 12, “if the parties fail to complete Settlement and Closing within fourteen (14) days of the Settlement Date…the Delaying Party shall be in breach and the Non-Delaying Party may terminate this Contract.” Legally speaking, the contract is voidable at the option of the Non-Delaying Party, but ...
A presumption of abandonment shall arise 10 or more days after the landlord has posted conspicuously a notice of suspected abandonment both inside and outside the premises and has received no response from the tenant.
If you have a good reason for missing the closing date, the courts will usually decide in your favor and grant a reasonable postponement, giving the buyer an extra 30 days to complete the transaction.
When the closing is delayed, it might force sellers to make last-minute adjustments to their plans. Adding to the financial strain, closing delays mean the seller continues to incur holding costs on the property. This includes ongoing mortgage payments, property taxes, and maintenance expenses.
If you back out without cause, the buyer can bring legal action for breach of contract. That means you could be facing a lawsuit where the buyer seeks compensation. Depending on the buyer, the lawsuit may seek financial compensation or even specific performance, forcing you to sell your home.
