How Much Time Does It Take to Get to the Closing in Clarksville, TN?

Both buyers and sellers want to know how fast they can close once they have reached an agreed contract. The answer is it depends. 

How long does it take to close on a home in Clarksville Tn?

If the transaction is a cash deal with no contingencies then it can close very quickly, usually within a week's time. If the buyer makes the contract contingent on an appraisal or home inspection then it will likely take up to 3 weeks. 

If the buyer is getting financing that requires an appraisal and the buyer also gets a home inspection, then the timeline is moved out to about 30 days. Processing and underwriting takes time and then there are the required disclosure periods that must be given. It could take longer if the appraiser is backlogged or there are required repairs that will need to be reinspected to get the loan approved.

Regardless, having a good agent to guide you will help keep the transaction on track and reduce the number of days. The agent will stay on top of what is needed to get it closed and use gentle nudging to create a sense of urgency.

It is usually in the best interest of all parties to move toward a quick closing while satisfying all requirements of the contract.

That is a quick turnaround when financing in your area, Debbie Reynolds. I see longer periods here in Sarasota and in many cases, even longer in San DIego.

Debbie, great post, as this is a common question asked by most buyers.   We usually figure 30-45 days on financed transactions.

Debbie, this is a great post for buyers to read and I like that you note how much it varies. We work with a couple lenders here that can close in 2 weeks but, we only do that if absolutely necessary. 21-30 days tends to be much easier on all parties here most of the time.
