I have seen this several times...A day or 3 before closing or worse yet, the day of, the seller are wondering how to get everything moved.
This is an area that I hit early on, and sometimes even at the time of listing.
I have moved many times in my life, including entire farms when I was a kid so I know how much work it is.
ASK:
How are you moving
Who is helping you move
When are you going to start packing
Are you hiring a moving company and how much notice do they want
Are you planning on putting some stuff in storage.
Are you haveing a sale
Should you bring in a dumpster for unwanted items.(Great for Rural properties)
Some sellers don't want to worry about it until they have sold, but really look around and ask what the plans are. Then monitor them and make sure they understand the issues if they are not ready come closing.
Better to talk now than at the closing table!
