Must I Attend Closing?
Check with your closing provider, but in most jurisdictions — if not all — the answer is “no.”
The purpose of closing is to assure that all requirements of the sale agreement have been met. The closing papers need to be signed by all parties to the transaction, and often notarized or witnessed.
However, the signing process need not be done at the closing table. Documents can often be reviewed and signed away from the closing table and sent to the closing provider by overnight delivery.
For specifics, speak with the closing agent as far in advance as possible so that you’re aware of all options.
