What Happens During My Closing?

To finalize your transaction, you will need to complete a closing. Please review the closing details emailed to you to ensure that the time, date and location are correct, and then read on below for the information you need to make your closing a success.

Preparing for Your Closing

There are a few preparations for you to make ahead of your closing appointment:

  1. If you will be bringing funds to, or receiving funds from your closing, you can choose from a variety of safe and secure options from the Closing tab once signed in to your Rocket Mortgage account.
  2. Be prepared with your driver’s license or other valid, state-issued photo ID and any payment you are required to bring to closing.
  3. If you are in a state or county that requires witnesses at your closing (Connecticut, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina or Liberty County, Florida) be sure to make any necessary arrangements.
  4. If you need to use a power of attorney, you must contact Rocket Mortgage for prior approval.

Completing Your Closing

You will be signing a series of documents known as a closing package. For added speed and efficiency, the documents in your closing package will be digital, and you will be using the Clear Sign(sm) digital signing platform to sign them.

Your signing agent or attorney (depending on which state you are in) will join you at the scheduled time and location of your closing appointment and verify your identity. You will review and sign the documents in their presence and they will apply their notary seal.

If you have questions during your closing, your signing agent or attorney can help clarify what’s required of you at each step. Once completed, Rocket Close will review and recording your documents.

If you will be receiving funds from your transaction, they will be sent after the closing package is successfully reviewed.
