If you’re selling your house and you have a mortgage on it or you have equity loan, we’re going to be asking you for that information at the onset.

What to Consider When Selling a House | How We Will Help
Then what will happen, when I know the deal is about to close, we’re going to contact the lender and the home equity company and we’re going to make certain that we get pay-off statements. Those pay off statements are going to set for the amount due, the interest, and we’re going to calculate that so we can make certain that when we close, we are able to send the money to the bank to pay off the mortgage. Mortgage gets paid off, the mortgage company, usually within 30 days is going to issue a satisfaction or discharge of mortgage, and we make certain that, that of course is filed in the area county of the clerk’s office. The buyer of the property needs to know that information also and we follow up with the purchaser’s attorney to make certain that, that information is sent to the buyer’s attorney so that they’re informed too.
