    What Happens After Your Offer Is Accepted?

    Acceptance is just the start. Here's what comes next between offer acceptance and closing.

    Having your offer accepted is exciting, but it's not the finish line. Several important steps remain before you receive your keys.

    Typically, you'll enter an inspection period, where a professional inspector evaluates the property's condition. You'll review findings and may negotiate repairs or credits.

    If you're financing, the lender will order an appraisal to confirm the property's value supports the loan. Your financing is finalized during this window.

    Title work proceeds in parallel, helping identify any ownership, lien or other issues that need to be addressed before closing.

    Finally, you'll review closing documents, bring your funds to close, sign, and take ownership. Jerry helps coordinate each of these steps so nothing falls through the cracks.
