Seller is moving out of state and wants to leave right after the movers are finished packing and ready to hit the road. "The closing isn't for another 3 more days - do I have to hang around, or locate a place to stay until we close?"
In today's real estate, actually, you do not have to be at the closing, the closer can arrange to have all your documents ready for your signatures the day you are ready. (as long as the mortgage payoff and HOA status information is back) Even buyers can opt for a mobile notary wherever they are to get the documents signed. This is especially nice for relocation buyers closing on their primary home that is out of state, and signing on their purchase in their new city.
A Seller can close before the actual close date and have all their paperwork signed, but the funds will not be wired until the buyer has signed their paperwork, and the transaction has been funded. USUALLY, within a couple of hours after the closing, the wire is received by the Seller.
