There are a number of things you should do in advance of your closing:

• Have your realtor send Melissa the Purchase & Sale Agreement (P&S)
• Have your lender send Melissa the title request
• Check with the local Code Enforcement Officer (CEO) to confirm that your intended use of the property, if not purely residential, is permitted
• Have homeowner’s insurance ready for the date of closing
• Contact Central Maine Power (CMP) to set up a new account
• Contact Maine Water to set up a new account if applicable
• Set up fuel delivery
• Make sure any contingencies in the P&S have been completed to your satisfaction
• Review the proposed deed and bank documents for the correct spelling of your name
