Year end closings
If you are currently house hunting or planning to refinance and would like to close on before the end of the year, then please choose your dates wisely. This is because we have 3 statutory holiday’s within the last week of the year. Christmas & Boxing day fall on Saturday & Sunday this year and that means that Monday and Tuesday will also be holiday’s for the banks and law offices. December 24th is normally a half day anyway and with the week after Christmas being a total write off anyway, if you are looking at dates to close pick no later than December 15th.
People take vacations in the week leading up to and after Christmas. Also not all closings happen on the day that they are supposed to and are sometimes carried forward a few days to get everything in order. So to prevent your closing being delayed please get all your ducks in a row and don’t put any date later than December 15th on your purchase or refinance. Otherwise you could see it possibly being delayed until Jan 12th next year.
Today I am thankful for seeing all the deer in our neighbourhood during our walks, clients planning ahead and closing mid December and friends that call out of the blue just to chat.
