Questions before a cash sale

No universal schedule applies. Access, inspections, title, documents, and the agreed terms determine the work needed. We discuss those dependencies before proposing a closing date.

Identify whether the home is on Whidbey or Camano and supply the parcel reference with the address. Record access arrangements, occupancy and available well or septic records. Island County does not include Bainbridge Island; geographic assumptions can send a review to the wrong place.

Agree on who has keys, which buildings can be entered and any access limitations before arranging travel. Supply existing reports first. Compare offers using the same house, outbuildings and included parcel interests, with unresolved system questions visible.

Schedule contents removal and key transfer around the actual access plan and confirmed closing readiness. Remote signatures are for escrow to arrange. Keep utility and property-care responsibilities assigned until the agreed possession point; travel bookings do not confirm a funded closing.

No. A request starts a discussion. Review any proposed purchase agreement carefully before signing and compare alternatives.

Not necessarily. Mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, prorations, and agreed expenses can affect proceeds. Ask escrow for a property-specific estimate.
