Time to Start Moving In!
Final Walk-Through Inspection
The final walk-through occurs just before closing. Ensure agreed repairs are complete, contingencies satisfied, and the seller’s belongings removed.
Closing
At closing, you, the seller, and the closing agent sign settlement documents, you finalize loan paperwork, and funds are transferred. Bring a certified check or arrange a wire for any closing funds. After documents are recorded with the county, you’ll take official ownership.

Tips For Buying The Perfect Home
Don’t Max Out Your Budget
Approval for a top amount doesn’t mean you should spend to the limit. Reserve funds for closing costs, taxes, repairs, and unexpected expenses.
Get To Know The Area
Confirm the neighborhood fits your daily needs: schools, shopping, commute, and long-term desirability.
Don’t Skip The Home Inspection
Inspections reveal issues you can’t see and allow informed negotiation or repair planning.
Get Pre-Approved
A pre-approval signals to sellers that you’re a serious buyer and ready to move quickly.

Resources For Shelton Home Buyers
The journey to homeownership starts by understanding how much you can afford. One major thing to consider is your down payment, if any. Many consumers believe it's impossible to buy a home without at least 20 percent down. But thanks to various government-sponsored programs, many people can now buy a house with as little as 3.5 percent toward a down payment. Veterans of the U.S. military have zero-down programs available.
