The course of transactions can vary. Then what is a smooth, clean transaction, and what can we do to make it so?

Suggest one gets from his broker a step by step process. Each step needs to be rectified and each state or brokerage is different..

Welcome to ActiveRain!

Finding the house is step 1. In my area, that's followed by step 2-inspection, step-3 contract, and then all the mortgage/title/insurance/ survey/etc related activities follow. I think the steps are different in every area.
