Transfer Utilities Before Settlement

Prior to closing, you are required to prepay the premiums for a one-year homeowner’s (hazard) insurance policy. This does not apply if you have purchased a condo. In the week prior to closing, you will need to provide your lender with a copy of the “Binder” obtained from your insurer which is simply evidence of your coverage.

Also, at least a week before you are scheduled to close on your home, you should contact the appropriate utility companies to have service established in your name. Request uninterrupted service to be effective on the day of closing. To assist you, I have compiled the following list of phone numbers. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions or should you need further assistance.

Don’t forget make sure your funds at closing are certified bank funds (or Cashier Checks)
