Season 7 of Summer House premieres on Bravo on Monday, February 13, at 9 p.m. Fans of the long-running Bravo series will see Kyle Cooke, Amanda Batula, Lindsay Hubbard, Carl Radke, Paige DeSorbo, Danielle Olivera and Ciara Miller return to the small screen for the forthcoming season of Summer House. Jesse Solomon and West Wilson have been rumored to be joining the cast as they have been photographed with the Summer House stars. Since then, Lindsay has shared various photos alongside her castmates hanging out in the Hamptons.

Her parents left their family home in New York last summer  to pursue a new life for themselves in Texas. Feeling abandoned, she leans on her new friends in the house for support, but finds letting her guard down is harder than she expected. This summer Kyle is refreshed and excited to send it with his friends in the Hamptons. He’s turning 40 and although age is just a number, the reality of this milestone birthday is starting to hit him.

Nick is a fashion aficionado who works not only as a sports brand manager but also as a wedding stylist.

She has a passion for writing and first met Jasmine at Sundance in 2019. Party girl Shanice is ready to settle down and find her future husband after a painful split from her former partner.

After spending last summer quarantined together, the housemates are back on their New York grind during the week and Hamptons shenanigans on the weekend. We've got some returning favorites, three new could-be favorites, as well as guest appearances from Southern Charm's Craig Conover and Austen Kroll. Not to mention there are three new, as-yet-announced housemates who are bound to heat things up even further.

Unlike most of the cast, Amir is visiting Martha’s Vineyard for the very first time. And, for that very reason, the real estate mogul, who has Black and Lebanese roots, hopes to learn more about Black history during his visit. ” Hubbard asks Olivera, seemingly referring to her relationship with Carl Radke. Cast members Amanda Batula, Kyle Cooke, Lindsay Hubbard, Carl Radke, Paige DeSorbo, Ciara Miller, Danielle Olivera, and Gabby Prescod will all return for Season 8 of Summer House.

The trailer for season 7 of Summer House dropped on January 12, 2023. Samantha Feher, Mya Allen and Chris Leoni will reportedly be featured in part-time roles. The Summer House cast went into production on the series’ eighth season earlier this week, but Lindsay Hubbard and her fiance, Carl Radke, were hundreds of miles away, celebrating the Fourth of July holiday in Washington, D.C. Craig and Kory have been the best of friends since they were fraternity brothers at the College of Charleston, while Paige and Sam became pals during the summer. "I haven’t had a boyfriend in so long... Kory and I made it official a little while ago, and [we've] just been enjoying being in a relationship."

Andrea Denver and Winter House’s Kory Keefer will also spend some time with the gang throughout the summer. Additionally, fans will get to see Paige and Craig navigate their long-distance romance. While the Southern Charm star said he wanted Paige, who’s based in New York City, to visit him more in Charleston, South Carolina, she seemed content with their current arrangement. Another storyline teased in the trailer follows Amanda and Kyle’s struggle to become pregnant. "To get engaged right now would be crazy," Danielle told her costars behind Lindsay’s back.

Though the three were all single when they arrived in the Hamptons, Samantha is now dating Summer House guest and Winter House cast member, Kory Keefer. Carl confirmed he broke up with Lindsay and that they canceled their planned wedding in Mexico in a letter to his family and friends that was obtained by PEOPLE. “There have been a lot of false narratives and misunderstandings that have made this all the more painful but sadly at this time we are not moving forward with the wedding,” Carl said in his letter. “The fact of the matter is Lindsay is devastated and I’m crushed with how all this transpired. I graciously ask for some patience and grace to heal and recover while we navigate this extremely difficult time,” he added. When Summer House season 7 ended, Lindsay and Carl were at odds with almost the entire cast, including Lindsay’s former bestie Danielle.

A trailer for the action-packed season dropped on January 11, and it shows what happened in the months leading up to Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard's scheduled November wedding date. The next series in the Sandman universe, the Dead Boy Detectives, is now streaming on Netflix.

While being married to Amanda has only improved their relationship, the two face a potential hurdle when they start exploring the idea of having kids. Though Danielle and Lindsay have been the best of friends for years, their relationship fractures when the fashion app founder expresses some concerns over Lindsay’s relationship with Carl.

The Bravo reality show is returning for season 8 and viewers will witness the demise of Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke‘s relationship. The couple called off their engagement in August 2023 — less than three months before their wedding — and cameras were rolling throughout the whole ordeal. Heading into the summer, Lindsay is giving her romance with best friend Carl a real chance, and she’s the happiest she’s ever been. However, Lindsay begins to become activated when a few of her housemates begin to question how fast the relationship is moving. One person who isn’t taking note of the male cast members’ good looks?

Stephen was part of the cast of Season 1 and Season 2 of Summer House. Still a friend of many cast members (including Danielle Olivera and the Wirkus twins), his Instagram bio says that he's currently an event planner. After the drama subsided, he founded an app called CapGenius, which helps Instagram users create funny photo captions, a project he works on alongside his career as a growth marketing consultant for a number of brands. As of now he's based in Colorado and, according to his personal Instagram bio, is "probably skiing" right now. Though she was a fast fan favorite, Sam Feher was only on Summer House for one season (Season 7, to be specific) before departing to focus on her entrepreneurial career (she's also a journalist and content creator).

Abbie, you just told us that as homeless numbers went up and these homeless encampments really started spreading, it’s no longer just conservatives who want the Supreme Court to revisit the Boise ruling. In 2022, when the courts heard this case, they agreed with the homeless plaintiffs that there’s no low-barrier shelter in Grants Pass and that the religious shelter did not meet the court’s requirements. But the city, who are actually now represented by the same lawyers who argued for Boise, keeps appealing the case.

When people ask where to live in Los Angeles, Glendale is a North Hollywood neighborhood that often pops up. This area is famous for being the heart of LA’s Armenian population.

This week we reported that high street lenders such as Halifax, TSB, NatWest, Barclays, Leeds Building Society, HSBC and Coventry had all hiked mortgage rates. "You're spending time, energy and money doing something that doesn't have a lot of evidence behind it. We found it does make you feel good but you don't need to pay thousands to do it." She explained that some people will be very specific with their desires, like selecting a photo of the exact car they want, or the perfect house, but that isn't how manifestation works. There needs to be an element of trust in the universe giving them what they attract. "It's so important to bring in your values with manifestation because sometimes we can get really confused with what we want, with social media especially," she told me.

But getting a cut of future revenue would encourage them to invest in their cars and facilities. Teams, most of which lose money each year under the current model, said that this hurt their ability to prepare for the future, scared investors away and made operations tenuous at a time when NASCAR seemed flush. When Michael Jordan and his right-hand man, Curtis Polk, bought a NASCAR team in 2020 with the driver Denny Hamlin, they were prepared to endure short-term losses. The Next Generation cars that were introduced in 2022 would cost top teams about $18 million a year to run before paying a driver, and their team, 23XI, had two. Paying for a new building to house the cars would cost tens of millions of dollars more. In March 2007, two Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police officers were killed while responding to a domestic dispute by someone not directly involved in the fight.

But despite such a major event, there are no video cameras allowed in the courtroom, and no still photos save for those typically taken of the defense table in a minute-long photo opportunity. Millions of Americans following cannot see what the trial actually looks like. But these enhancements don’t change the fundamentals of operating teams, owners and executives said. Jonathan Marshall, the executive of the Race Team Alliance, an advocacy group for the teams, said that the teams would much rather reach a fair deal with NASCAR that gave them more of a stake in the sport’s future. The teams are not asking for part of income that NASCAR already has, like ticket sales at the tracks, he said.

Growing degree days are a measure of yearly heat accumulation used to predict plant and animal development, and defined as the integral of warmth above a base temperature, discarding any excess above a maximum temperature. The crash happened one block west of where the dedicated bike lane ends on Charlotte Ave. at 28th Ave. and bikers are forced to share the road with cars that only have a handful of warning signs telling them to give cyclists a full lane. Team executives said that they appreciated all that NASCAR had done to increase the sport’s visibility. There is a new video and broadcast production center outside Charlotte, and the reality series “Full Speed” on Netflix, which follows drivers through a season. And NASCAR has installed more remote cameras and scanners at tracks so that fans can watch and listen to their favorite drivers and their pit crews. Teams must buy most of their car parts from single suppliers, and they had a lot of obsolete inventory that they sold for pennies on the dollar.

Chhoeun watched as one officer was hit after another just nearby. For more than two years, the racing teams and NASCAR have essentially been at a standstill about the financial future of the sport. In sporadic talks between the sides, NASCAR has offered a modestly larger share of its new broadcast contract to the teams. But it has balked at the teams’ request that it share revenue from any future money streams like gambling, and it has refused their calls to make permanent the charters that teams must own to operate their cars. In all, eight law enforcement officials were shot, including two correction officers who were killed and a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer who was critically wounded and later died. We are using day length and cloud cover information for each day of the month to calculate averages for this chart.

The windier part of the year lasts for 6.6 months, from October 31 to May 17, with average wind speeds of more than 5.9 miles per hour. The windiest month of the year in Charlotte is March, with an average hourly wind speed of 7.2 miles per hour. All other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA's MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis . This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid.

This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages. Summertime means plenty of outdoor activities and events and the arrival of warmer weather to the region, with high temperatures averaging 87 degrees Fahrenheit and average lows averaging 66 for most of the season.

The least snow falls around July 27, with an average total accumulation of 0.0 inches. The month with the least rain in Charlotte is January, with an average rainfall of 3.0 inches. The month with the most rain in Charlotte is March, with an average rainfall of 3.5 inches.

The new parts are also less durable, lasting just four races or so, compared with the 10 races that the parts in the previous cars lasted for. The Next Gen cars have carbon fiber bodies that are more durable but cannot be repaired when damaged, unlike the metal bodies of the older cars, which could be welded and repurposed. Teams must now buy a minimum number of tires, which can cost more than a $1 million a season. Unlike the National Basketball Association, the National Football League and most other sports leagues, NASCAR is a privately held business that is tightly controlled by the France and Kennedy families.

The month with the fewest wet days in Charlotte is October, with an average of 6.5 days with at least 0.04 inches of precipitation. The average hourly wind speed in Charlotte is essentially constant during November, remaining within 0.1 miles per hour of 6.1 miles per hour throughout. Also, as summer draws to a close, the end of September sees high temperatures in the upper 70s and lower 80s, which steadily fall to a high of around 59 degrees Fahrenheit at the end of November. Meanwhile, average lows range from 60 degrees Fahrenheit in September down to 32 at the start of December. While Charlotte may not be known as a winter wonderland destination, it still experiences seasonal lows and small but consistent accumulations of snow from December through March each year. However, with an average of one-tenth of an inch of snowfall each month — and the most falling from late January to late February (0.3 inches) — the city isn't ideal for winter or snow sports.

And there are drug issues and mental health issues, and that this is actually bringing a lot of chaos to the city. And these tickets and fines, it’s something that people have been dealing with for years in Grants Pass. And this group of local homeless people make the argument that everyone in Grants Pass who is homeless is involuntarily homeless. And they weren’t the first people to make this argument. The issue actually started years ago with a case about 500 miles to the East, in Boise, Idaho.

And in that case, which is called Martin v. Boise, this man, Robert Martin, who is homeless in Boise, he was charged with a misdemeanor for sleeping in some bushes. And the city of Boise had laws on the books to prohibit public camping. So three homeless people sued the city of Grants Pass, saying it’s not illegal to be homeless, and therefore it’s not illegal to sleep in a public space.

They need to be able to use every tool that they can to be able to try to solve this problem. And of course, people are homeless for a lot of very different reasons. It sounds like a lot of these reasons might actually disqualify them from this particular shelter. So when they say they have nowhere else to go, if they’re in Grants Pass, they kind of have a point. So they did make it very uncomfortable for homeless people, but it doesn’t seem to be working. So it just seemed to be this cycle that actually was entrenching people more into homelessness.

This townhouse, the listing says, "epitomizes timeless elegance and architectural distinction." Los Angeles, California, is a city with a deep and diverse history. Los Angeles is famous for its film and entertainment industry, earning it the nickname "The Entertainment Capital of the World." “Our House” is a classic ‘80s pop song about family life in working-class London. In the U.K., they were massive—this is one of 20 straight singles they landed in the Top 20 between 1979 and 1985.

Residents can enjoy cuisine from all over the world, visit museums like the Getty Center, or attend live shows and concerts. However, newcomers should be aware that traffic congestion is a significant issue, and public transportation options, while improving, may not cover all areas extensively. When it comes to voting patterns, Los Angeles and the broader Los Angeles County are known for leaning towards the Democratic Party. This reflects the diverse population and the variety of views and lifestyles within the city. Local elections and issues can often draw significant attention and participation from the community.

Check them out this morning and we'll be back on Monday with rolling news and features. It runs with live updates every weekday - while on Saturdays we scale back and offer you a selection of weekend reads. The next Bank of England decision on rates comes on 9 May - and pretty much no one is expecting a cut from the 16-year high of 5.25% at that stage. "The UK is coming out of technical recession. Inflation is falling more convincingly. Pay settlements are following inflation expectations. And crucially, real policy rates in the UK will be higher than in the US." While all the manifestation believers I spoke to said there was no downside to the practice, a researcher has been looking into whether it really does pay off. As we created my abundance board, which Tansy describes as being like a "personal algorithm", she told me to select images and words from heaps of magazines that called to me intuitively.

And they’ve raised questions about public drug use and other safety issues in these spaces. They’re just saying that a city cannot not provide shelter and then make it illegal for people to lay down and sleep. What is really at the heart of their argument is that if the court upholds Grants Pass and Boise, that they are tying the hands of Grants Pass and hundreds of other towns and cities to actually act to solve and respond to homelessness.

So this case is about a small town in Oregon where three homeless people sued the city after they received tickets for sleeping and camping outside. And this case is the latest case that shows this growing tension, especially in states in the West, between people who are homeless and cities who are trying to figure out what to do about this. These cities have seen a sharp increase in homeless encampments in public spaces, especially with people on sidewalks and in parks.

Frank Sinatra and Mia Farrow's former home, a 19th century townhouse on the Upper East Side, is now up for grabs. This means people end up paying more tax than they otherwise would, when their pay rises with inflation but the thresholds don't keep up. "Status symbol" pets are being given up by owners who get scared as they grow up, an animal charity has said, with the cost of living possibly paying a part in a rise in separations.

New from Charlotte Tilbury: Scent of a Dream, The Legendary Muse Eyeshadow Palette and Legendary Brows

This format gives reviewers a way to provide an in-depth review of the same specific aspects of a product, allowing you zero in on the criteria that are most important to you. Charlotte Tilbury Happipetal Hyaluronic Happikiss Colour Balm ($34.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark orange-coral with strong, warm undertones and a high-shine, glossy cream finish. The texture was thicker, slightly denser, and this resulted in a heavier look that was easy to over-apply.

It lasted well for four hours and felt hydrating while worn. Perfect, full, kissable lips really do grow on trees… Charlotte’s debut range of lipsticks are truly remarkable and boast a fail-safe recipe for perfect lips. The unique formula features seed extracts from ‘The Lipstick Tree,’ a plant extract that is exclusive to Charlotte Tilbury. ‘The Lipstick Tree’ is a rare, exotic tree with nurturing and protective properties were originally discovered by Native American women who used the seeds to paint and protect their lips. With an anti-oxidant that naturally protects lips from UV damage and external pollution, lips are left cashmere soft and irresistible.

It wore well for three hours and felt hydrating over time. Charlotte Tilbury Enchanting Kiss Hyaluronic Happikiss Colour Balm ($34.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a brighter, medium pink-coral with moderate, warm undertones and a high-shine, glossy finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage, which was slightly more coverage than marketed, that applied somewhat evenly. The Kissing formula is supposed to be pigmented and luminous, while also being hydrating. It has a creamier, lightweight consistency that's comfortable to wear and to apply with a moderately hydrating formula to back it.

Whether the product looked smoothing depended on the shade as some were more flattering to wear than others. The formula had a subtle, sweet vanilla scent but no discernible taste. Charlotte Tilbury Coral Kiss Kissing Lipstick (£23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a brightened, medium coral-pink with a satin finish.

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Lipsticks

The formulas in this palette itself are much better in pigment and color payoff significantly compared to the first ones she launched. It’s still a very natural looking but I think colors are deep enough for even medium tan skin tones. It’s neutral in undertone to me making it a lot more wearable than her previous Beauty Glow Palette from 2017. Colors are soft but buildable, I think with the texture it’s easy to blend and impossible to overdo. It didn’t have as much slip as I would have thought, but this helped it sit better on my lips and have better longevity. It had rich color coverage that adhered somewhat evenly to my lips and seemed to fill in a few of my lip lines but didn’t smooth them all out.

I just got Crystal HappiKiss, I thought the other colours looked too pigmented for a balm type product. The Tarte Maricuja Juicy Lip is an exact dupe for this very shiny thick balm. I can’t remember what they cost, but the are deffo cheaper. The have loads more colours, and all of them are sheer.

Velvet Underground Kissing Lipstick (£23.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bold, brightened fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a satin finish. It was incredibly pigmented, and it applied and wore beautifully for a solid six and a half hours, plus it left behind a stain that lingered for a couple more hours. It was neither drying nor hydrating while worn; it seemed slightly moisturizing initially but at the four-hour mark, it just seemed neither drying nor hydrating. The Charlotte Tilbury Gorgeous, Glowing Beauty Instant Look in a Palette is such a pretty easy to wear palette I think it should be permanent!

We just want to encourage and provide great reviews without that particular barrier to entry. She has normal-to-dry skin with occasional dryness on cheeks and nose. She has a light plus skintone with subtle, warmer yellow undertones (view her foundation matches here). An added benefit to the scales is quickly seeing how a product might perform. You can identify that a product is rated highly for luster without reading a lot of text. Easily compare and evaluate similar products based on identical criteria.

Worth noting, the packaging used thinner plastic and was much lighter-weight (to the point of feeling a little flimsy) compared to other Charlotte Tilbury lip products. It also has a clicking, twist-up mechanism that doesn't lalow for the product to be twist back into the tube, so take care when twisting product out for use. I'm guessing that the more balm-like formula needed that type of mechanism in order not to break at the base. Overall lots to love for easy everyday kind of makeup.

I find that some of the creamier shades can sit in my lip lines a bit, but it really depends on the shade on how noticeable it is in person. The wear ranges from three to five hours (reds and the like). There's a faint, sweet vanilla scent but no discernible taste. The finish was exceptionally shiny, and it did give the illusion of plumper lips.

I added a swatch of Pillow Talk at the end for reference. I reviewed the Superstar Lips formula last year here. I had mixed feelings because of the price and size of the product. I still do for this reason, but the formula is really nice, especially if you like a glossy lip. Three new shades caught my eye in Glow Kiss, Princess Kiss and Everlasting Kiss (the first two of these are exclusive to Charlotte Tilbury’s website). After hauling all three I decided to give the shimmery ones a try in Pillow Talk Diamonds and Lucky Diamonds as well.

Overall I’m happy with the way all of them look except for Pillow Talk Diamonds. They are very sheer and I find their online stock photos and model photos very misleading. I find they look a lot more pigmented and opaque online than they do in real life – even with heavy lip layering. For the price I’d expect a lot more product at the very least. As much as I like the colors I think the deeper and brighter options I bought last year make for a better buy.

The title company will transfer the title, and the home will officially be in your name. During the closing process, a title company, working in the interest of you and your lender, will perform a title search to ensure the seller owns the right to the property and can legally sell you the home. The company also looks for existing liens on the house to prevent new homeowners from getting hounded by the previous owner’s lenders for unpaid debts.

Applying for a mortgage

The disclosure stage typically takes a few days and is completed by the mortgage lender. The lender must supply the loan’s terms, including estimated monthly payments, fees and other closing costs. The closing process will take about a month or longer, but your closing day will take about 1 – 2 hours of a home buyer's time. You typically won’t need more than 2 hours to tie up loose ends and certify your purchase, marking the final steps to buying a house. Closing costs are the fees paid to your lender and other third parties to close on your loan.

Need Assistance Buying a House With Cash?

To make sure you don’t forget anything on such an exciting day, create a list and check off your items as you pack them. One of the last steps before you sign your closing papers should be to look over the property one last time. You want to make sure that no damage has occurred since your last home inspection. You should also verify that the seller has completed the required fixes and no new problems came up.

How to Find A Real Estate Agent (For Buyers and Sellers)

You don’t have to be at the mercy of your lender’s timeline — provided you choose the right one. During high volume times for the mortgage industry — such as the current coronavirus refinance boom — lenders become strapped for resources, and quick communication is often the first thing to go. “Getting back to you can mean they approved you for a loan, or they’ll come back after three to five business days and say, ‘Oh I need more information from you,’” she says. We talked to Jessica Sanchez, Head of Mortgage Operations at HomeLight, to walk us through why exactly the mortgage takes so darn long, and what you can do to speed up the process. The final walk-through is a step every homebuyer should participate in.

Open escrow: 0 extra days (bundled into contract of sale)

It also makes it easier to locate and send any forms requested at the last minute, which can help you avoid holding up the process. Our guide will help you know what to expect on closing day and how to prepare ahead of time, so you can get to the table faster and avoid any roadblocks on your path to homeownership. Such contingencies must be removed in writing by specific dates stated in your purchase offer, a process known as active approval. However, in some purchase agreements, contingencies are subject to passive approval (also known as constructive approval). That means they are considered approved if you don’t protest them by their specified deadlines.

This content is created independently from TIME’s editorial staff. If all goes well (as it usually does), you will eventually leave your home closing with a stack of documents (which you should save) and the keys to your new home (finally!). If you find an issue during your walk-through, bring it up with the sellers as soon as possible. There’s no need to panic; at worst you can simply delay the closing until you resolve it. In a vast majority of cases, Donaldson says there aren’t any unwelcome walkthrough surprises as long as the seller has maintained that the property is in good working order before closing.

We wouldn’t even bother writing this section if the work was over, however. Take time to celebrate, but after that, reassess your new financial realities — your future homeownership expenses as well as the closing costs that may have set you back more than planned. Making an offer and having it accepted works a lot like any other home sale — unless you’re asking for a cash discount. If the seller has an urgent need to close quickly, they might be willing to negotiate a lower price in exchange for a quick close. Buying a home is a large financial transaction with many legal ramifications.

Multiple parties control different aspects of closing, but you can always ensure you do your utmost to facilitate the process. For example, follow up with necessary documentation on the same day it was requested. Instead of hurrying through your disclosure paperwork, peruse it for errors. The final step of closing is putting the home’s title in your name, which legally makes you the property owner.

If you still wish to proceed with the purchase of the home, you could consider negotiating with the seller to have them pay for the repair or take the cost to fix it yourself off the purchase price. Typically it takes 30 to 45 days to close on a house, depending on a few factors like how fast it takes to get a home inspection and whether or not you are pre-approved for a mortgage. Closing on a house can take from a week to 60 days, depending on the property type and whether you are paying cash or financing the purchase. A real estate deal is generally a long and stressful exercise that involves many steps and procedural formalities. Closing on a house occurs when you sign the papers that make the house yours, but before that fateful day arrives, a long list of things has to happen. This article describes the 12 steps that must be taken between the moment your offer is accepted and when you get the keys to your new home.

If your appraisal comes in lower than the home's sales price, your lender may need to decrease the amount you can borrow so they’re more likely to recover their investment in case of foreclosure. Other options include the seller considering a lower selling price or your lender requesting a second appraisal. On closing day, you’ll be greeted by a pile of legal documents that need your signature. Many of these documents are legally binding agreements, so you must read through them to ensure they’re error-free and you fully understand all terms. Review each cost carefully ahead of time and compare it to your original Loan Estimate.

A standard inspection can cost $300–$400 or more, and you'll need to pay this up front.Work with your agent to schedule your inspection. Depending on the home's location and condition, you may want additional inspections, such as sewer, termite, or roof inspections. The closing agent conducts the settlement meeting and makes sure that all documents are signed and recorded and that closing fees and escrow payments are paid and properly distributed. Even if your initial home inspection went smoothly, it’s still a good idea to do a final walk-through right before you move into the new house. It is always possible that damage could have occurred between the first inspection and your move-in date.

To keep the closing process going, the seller and buyer must agree on how to address the concerns from the home inspection. Solutions include the seller completing repairs on the home, lowering the price, or mitigating the closing costs for the buyer. In a competitive market, a seller might decide to take no action because they believe the house will sell anyway. As a prospective homebuyer, you may be well acquainted with the pain of making it to closing day. Few things are more frustrating than finding your dream home only to have your loan application gummed up in underwriting because of a missing document. However, going in well-prepared for the endeavor of buying a home can help alleviate some of the anxiety that comes with closing on a home.

There is no definitive timeline, as many of these will be happening at the same time, but here's a general idea of the steps involved and how they work together. However, none of the many steps required of the buyer are particularly difficult, and in most cases you'll have help from your realtor. Be sure to do all you can to avoid any roadblocks or delays in the closing process.

It is possible for closings to be as quick as 30 days, though, especially in all-cash deals. Even the more challenging market conditions of 2024, as described by top agents surveyed by HomeLight, hasn’t significantly dimmed the appeal of cash offers. In fact, while the volume of real estate transactions has decreased and inventory has risen, inventory remains relatively tight. As of late 2023, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) estimates a 3.6-month supply of homes on the market (a 6-month supply is considered balanced).

Next Steps

Knowing what information and documents you need to send your lender and how to prepare for closing day can prevent possible delays and make the experience more enjoyable. Issues can also come up when a buyer gets a new job, takes on more debt or misses a payment, any of which can impact their financial standing. These actions can affect the terms of your loan or could even change whether you qualify for the mortgage. However, there are other delays that are in your control and that you can avoid. It’s important to note that not all states have legally mandated seller disclosures, so be sure to speak with a real estate agent about what’s required in your area. Even if you don't need a 20% downpayment, and not every buyer does, it may be useful to have money to pay for inspection fees and anything else that might come up when househunting.

How Long Does It Take To Close On A House?

Buyers who have been preapproved for a loan instead of pre-qualifying are often able to close sooner. The preapproval process means an underwriter has checked certain facts and details ahead of time. The lender needs to know how much money you have in your bank account and will ask for bank statements. It will also want to know where that money came from and may ask you to provide recent paystubs, W-2 forms, or tax returns. This information helps assure the lender that you can keep up with your mortgage payments.

Conduct a title search and order title insurance

According to ICE Mortgage Technology, Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans took 52 days to close, racking in the longest average closing time. A title is a legal document that shows the history of ownership of a home. After the seller has accepted your offer, an attorney or title company will review the home’s title to look for any problems that might prevent the home from being legally sold. Most importantly, they want to find out if anyone other than the owner has a claim on the home. They will then produce a title report with their findings.Once you get your title report, read it immediately. This protects against financial losses in the event that a problem arises with the title after you buy the home.

But if the seller pre-signed the deed and transfer documents, they probably won’t need to be there. Closing costs are the fees third parties charge when you finalize buying your home. These costs usually include the home inspection bill, premium for homeowner’s insurance, appraisal fee, credit report charges, attorney expenses and so forth. Be mindful that you’ll need to pay some of these fees before the actual closing day (earnest money, home inspection). From hiring a real estate attorney to negotiating closing costs, there are many steps involved in closing on a house. On closing day, you will be responsible for signing numerous documents, and paying closing costs and escrow items — not to mention the price of the home (minus any good-faith deposit you’ve already made).

Finalize the loan with your lender

It wasn’t easy to land a deal on your dream home in this hot market. You’ve probably had to scratch and claw your way to secure an offer. Sometimes a seller will agree to pay part or all of your closing costs.

All other requirements to close on the loan are still fulfilled at this closing. You can even create a list of all the documents you need and the deadlines for turning them in. Check them off as you send them to your lender and mark the date they were sent. You’ll also want to get verification to confirm that they were received.

In any event, you'll receive a full report of the inspector's findings. Discuss any serious issues with the seller and either ask the seller to complete repairs or lower the sale price to account for the cost of repairs. To make sure you’re fully prepared, here’s what to expect from the closing process, step by step. You need extra cash now, you’re relocating for a job, or a family member had a change in health — some scenarios such as these require sellers to move more nimbly than a 50-day closing timeline allows. If you are concerned about the process taking too long, consider the alternative of requesting a cash offer for your home.

This consent applies even if you are on a corporate, state or national Do Not Call list. Every real estate transaction is different — but if your buyer is using a mortgage, there will be a waiting period between signing the purchase contract and receiving your sale proceeds. Each step from here on out will be scheduled based on that date, the final deadline on your home sale (which can be renegotiated in the event of delays or surprises). Once you’ve knocked out these steps, you’ll be able to move into your new home! The home inspection can uncover issues that can cause the buyer to hesitate.

Although loan officers tend to know the guidelines, which helps smooth the loan process, they can't always predict what an underwriter will say. For example, the escrow process is different in northern California and southern California. Escrow orders are drawn and signed shortly after the offer acceptance in southern California, but they're drawn and signed just before closing in the northern counties. Depending on the location and agreement between the buyer and seller, the home may need to undergo a series of quality checks prior to closing. The amount of time a home closing takes will depend on a few factors.

They’re typically around 3% – 6% of the purchase price of the home and include several fees, like the appraisal, origination, title insurance and application fees. You may also have to pay mortgage insurance depending on the type of loan you get and how much you put down.

If any step in the process is held up, the whole timeline can be affected. In this article, learn how the home closing process works, as well as ways to speed it up. By preparing in advance and knowing what the process entails, you can help ensure that the closing goes smoothly. A home inspection is an independent property assessment by a dedicated professional. The inspector focuses on the home's major mechanical systems, including electrical, plumbing, and HVAC; structural elements, such as the roof, flooring, and foundation; and potential safety issues. A title company performs multiple essential functions during the close.

Issues uncovered in the title search can also delay a closing — or even potentially sink a deal. After the seller and buyer have executed a contract, a title company or attorney will examine the title of a home to make sure the seller is the only one who has a legal ownership claim. This ensures there are no other claims to the property that might impact the sale. If there is not a clear title, the issue will have to be resolved before the sale can move forward. The buyer's lender controls the amount of time it takes to process and close the loan unless the buyers are paying all cash. A buyer and seller can agree to close sooner, and they can put this in the purchase contract, but the lender must be able to perform its role during that time frame.

A physical home inspection is necessary to discover any potential problems with the property and get a look at its surroundings. If you find a serious problem with the home during the inspection, you'll have an opportunity to back out of the deal or ask the seller to fix it. You can also have the seller pay you to fix it (as long as your purchase offer includes a home-inspection contingency). Don’t forget that you’ll need cash for both your down payment and closing costs. Keeping your finances stable throughout the closing process will help keep your closing on track because you won’t need to provide additional documentation to lenders justifying large deposits or withdrawals.
