Final Walk-Through Inspection.
The final inspection takes place the day before, or the morning of the closing date. The buyer visits the property, with the selling agent to verify that all is in working order, everything is the same as when the buyer last viewed the property, and that there are no extra items left behind.

Your attorney will furnish all parties involved with a settlement statement, which summarizes and details the financial transactions that are part of this process. This is called the Closing Disclosure (CD). The attendees at the closing table are as follows:
The seller and their attorney
The buyer and their attorney
Representative of the title company
Lender representative
…and the real estate agent/brokers.
If you are receiving funds from the transaction, a bank check will be issued to you at the closing.
That‘s when you hand over the keys to the new owners!
