Step 6. After the closing
Because you may be buying a home that is occupied, you often do not move into the house until 30 days after closing. This date, however, is entirely negotiable.
If the seller is willing to move out sooner, and you request
that they do, you may be able to move in sooner than 30 days.
The move in date is decided when we write up the offer.

Helpful Suggestions
Paperwork. Keep it all in one place. One thing I suggest
is that ALL the papers involved with your move
be kept in one place. All receipts, important papers,
and the settlement papers, etc. may be needed for
your income tax preparation, or for reference.
The title company will be giving you a vinyl pouch
for the settlement papers, but receipts and moving
papers are important, too.
