Closing or Settlement >Moving Day
Here are some tips for coordinating a move that depends on careful timing. Say the closing on the sale of your home is Friday morning at 11:00, and that afternoon at 3:00 you are to complete the transaction on the house you are buying. Your sellers are completing the purchase of their new house on Monday. As sellers, each of you is obligated to leave your house vacant and clean at the time of the closing. You will each take possession of the home you are buying after the closing.
If you are faced with a game of musical moving vans, you may want to negotiate with your buyers or sellers to remain in your old house for a few extra days or move your belongings into the new home a little early. You should draw up a written agreement which details your arrangement, such as the amount of rent, the move-in or move-out date, and any agreements regarding utilities, insurance, or a damage escrow. If you need to make special arrangements for your move, let your real estate agent know and work out the details as early as possible in advance of the closing.

The Mikels have won the coveted Columbian's Readers Choice Award twice - Scott in 2009 and Sam in 2010 (out of 1400 Realtors in Clark County). They are the "real" in real estate. They have been just that for over 50 years (between them) for thousands of buyers and sellers in Vancouver and SW Washington. Maybe you can tell what they're really like if you click on the tab "About Us" - "Who We Are." They'll treat you with gentleness, kindness and humor, all at the same time. See what their customers say about them. (No they weren't paid to say those things!)
After working many years in large companies, they started Scott Mikel & Associates, a LOCAL company, so they could choose which agents they associate with on a day-to-day basis, agents of ability and integrity and where they could have the technology for "virtual" real estate as needed. Scott and Sam have created a company with equal amounts of honesty, reliability and fun. They will treat you as family (if you wish) and w/ integrity and expertise at all times. Realtors are NOT all the same - some great, some not so great. Choose carefully.
