What does a settlement agent do for a seller?
Your settlement agent manages the legal and administrative work involved in transferring your property to the buyer.
We act as your point of contact throughout the sale, keeping you updated and coordinating with your buyer, their lender and your bank.
We'll also work directly with the buyer's settlement agent or lawyer, so you're not left chasing updates or wondering what's happening behind the scenes.
We'll help you:
Our role is to keep your sale moving and make sure nothing catches you by surprise.
