It includes steps like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Negotiation (1 to 3 Days)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the initial offer, both parties negotiate favorable terms. It may include price, closing date, terms of contract, and other contingencies. Negotiations usually last not more than 3 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Due Diligence Period (8 to 21 Days)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this period, both parties must complete various formalities. This includes tasks like <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/blog\/how-long-does-a-home-inspection-take\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">home inspection<\/a> and mortgage approval for buyers. The sellers must make any repairs the buyer requests after the inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Wait for the Buyer to Arrange Funds (30 to 60 days)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, buyers with mortgages need to get their final loan approval so the lender can sanction their funds on the closing date. It can take lenders around <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.cusocal.org\/Learn\/Financial-Guidance\/Blog\/how-long-does-it-take-to-get-a-mortgage#:~:text=From%20application%20to%20approval%20and,the%20home%20loan%20processing%20time.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">30 to 60 days<\/a> to review their application and approve the loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the buyer needs a mortgage, the escrow period can last over 45 days. However, in an all-cash purchase, there&#8217;s no lender involved. So, both parties can complete their respective due diligence and close the deal within <a     href=\"https:\/\/socalhomebuyers.com\/how-long-does-it-take-to-close-on-a-house-with-cash\/#:~:text=It's%20very%20possible%20that%20you,your%20house%20and%20your%20buyer.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">two weeks<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Creation of an Escrow Account (5 to 7 Days)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you and the buyer have negotiated the terms of the deal, the escrow period begins. The buyer keeps <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/blog\/earnest-money\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">his earnest money<\/a> in an escrow account.

Then, the company will oversee the transfer of ownership and disbursement of funds at closing per your state&#8217;s regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"Wet-Funding-vs.-Dry-Funding\"><strong>Wet Funding vs. Dry Funding<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The title company usually holds the funds till it reviews the paperwork. How long a title company can hold funds after closing depends on whether you live in a wet or dry funding state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\" id=\"What-Is-Wet-Funding?\"><strong>What Is Wet Funding?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>More than <a     href=\"https:\/\/acralending.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/acra-wet-dry-funding-states.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">40 states<\/a> have mandated wet funding for real estate transactions. In wet funding states, all formalities, including payment, must be completed simultaneously on the closing date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, title companies verify documents and release funds within 24 hours. This is perfect for those who plan to use the proceeds from the sale immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\" id=\"What-Is-Dry-Funding?\"><strong>What Is Dry Funding?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dry funding, on the other hand, is legal in nine states on the West Coast. In these states, you must wait 2 to 4 days for the title company to release funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It gives lenders time to finance the purchase and collect closing costs. Similarly, the title company can also verify paperwork properly before releasing your payment. Here is the complete <a     href=\"https:\/\/acralending.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/acra-wet-dry-funding-states.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">list of dry funding states<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Alaska<\/td><td>Hawaii<\/td><td>New Mexico<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Arizona<\/td><td>Idaho<\/td><td>Oregon<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>California<\/td><td>Nevada<\/td><td>Washington<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dry funding states, like California and Alaska, also allow wet funding. So, if you live in either of these states, make sure to evaluate which option benefits you the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"How-Do-You-Get-Paid-after-Selling-a-House?\"><strong>When Does the Seller Get Money After Closing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The title company\u2019s fund disbursal method can also affect the payment timeline. In both wet and dry funding states, you can request the title company to pay you via a wire transfer or a cashier\u2019s check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cashier&#8217;s Check:<\/strong> If you opt for this payment mode, the title company will hand you a check on the closing date. You must deposit it and wait for your bank to clear it, which can take up to <a     href=\"https:\/\/smartasset.com\/checking-account\/understanding-why-banks-hold-checks#:~:text=Federal%20Reserve%20rules%20require%20banks,drawn%20from%20a%20different%20bank.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">7 days<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wire Transfer: <\/strong>Wire transfer, on the other hand, only requires the title company to wire the fund to your bank account. You can expect to receive the entire amount within <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.selco.org\/help-and-support\/wire-transfers\/sending-an-escrow-wire\/#:~:text=An%20escrow%20wire%20may%20take,by%20the%20other%20financial%20institution.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">24 hours<\/a> of closing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Wet funding states already have a swift fund disbursal process. If you are in a dry funding state, wire transfers can speed up the process significantly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-28\" id=\"How-to-Get-Paid-Faster-after-Closing?\"><strong>How to Get Paid Faster After Closing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some more ways for you to get paid faster after closing on the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong>1. Close Early in the Week<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Banks and title companies remain <a     href=\"https:\/\/candysdirt.com\/2018\/03\/07\/title-tip-title-companies-closed-weekends\/#:~:text=Title%20companies%2C%20like%20lenders%2C%20assessors,to%20have%20our%20weekends%20off.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">closed on weekends<\/a>. Also, they can\u2019t process all the fund transfer requests in a day. If you close on your house on a Friday, they will probably process your funds the next Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when you accept an offer, negotiate a closing date between Monday to Thursday. It allows institutions to process the payment within the same week. With a wire transfer, this strategy can get you funds on the closing date itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong>2. Verify Buyer\u2019s Mortgage Pre-approval<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mortgage-related issues delay almost <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.nar.realtor\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/2022-01-realtors-confidence-index-02-18-2022.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">25%<\/a> of real estate transactions. To avoid such hiccups, only accept offers from buyers who have a mortgage pre-approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lenders pre-approve loans based on the applicant\u2019s credit score, income, debts, and assets. It guarantees the buyer that the lender will sanction their loan amount on the closing date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"check-minus-content-list\" style=\"background-color: #dff0ff; padding:20px; margin-left:-5px;\">\ud83c\udfaf<b>Average Timelines for Mortgage Approval:<\/b> Standard mortgages &#8211; 47 days. VA loans &#8211; 51 days. FHA loans &#8211; 52 days.<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading margin-top-15\"><strong>3. Prioritize All-cash Offers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a     href=\"https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/blog\/cash-offer-on-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">All-cash bids<\/a> from buyers remove the lender from the closing process. The buyer directly makes payment to the escrow account through a wire transfer. They are perfect if you are in dry funding states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many <a     href=\"https:\/\/www.houzeo.com\/blog\/ibuyer-opendoor-reviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iBuyer services<\/a> or cash-buying companies that extend instant cash offers on houses. However, they usually undercut the sellers by paying them below the property&#8217;s FMV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to sell for cash, Houzeo is a much better option.
