Can I close on a home without having to be at the closing ta

You can close on a home without having to be at the closing table, either by a mail away closing or by appointing someone to act for you, by using Power of Attorney.
How to identify a mail away loan during closing.
if the subject property state is PA and settlement agent state is MD, does it mean it's a mail away closing.

Hi Prashant,

Mail away closing is done only when the borrower is unable to attend the closing. The borrower has to provide an acceptable power of attorney or should take the necessary steps to complete a mail-away closing.

Thanks.

Is mail-away closing applicable if the seller cannot make it to the closing and is not a US citizen?

Welcome Sarita,

The seller will have to sign the property deed and also handover the keys to the buyer. I don't think this will be done through mail. The person will have to come down to the US for the same.

I live in Houston, Tx & am selling my home in Wisconsin.
Do I have to be present at the closing, or can all the
necessary papers be handled by mail or email?

Thank You

Hi dcharleswolf,

It would be better if you're present at the time of the closing of the deal. Nevertheless, you can check out if the presence of your lawyer while closing the deal is enough or not.

Hi Guest!

Welcome to the forums!

I don't think there would be problem but it will be better if you could get in touch with an attorney and take his opinion in this regard.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
