The Buying Process in Randolph, Massachusetts
Your contract and property determine the sequence and deadlines. Common planning steps include:
- Pre-approval — Get a mortgage pre-approval letter before making offers
- Offer — Submit a written offer with deposit and contingencies
- Home inspection — Conducted within the inspection contingency period
- Purchase and Sale Agreement (P&S) — A legally binding contract signed after inspection resolution
- Mortgage commitment — Lender issues formal commitment under the agreed financing schedule
- Final walkthrough — Verify property condition before closing
- Closing — Confirm signatures, funds, recording and agreed possession
Closings in Massachusetts are typically conducted with an attorney present. The timeline varies with financing, title, inspections and negotiated terms. An accepted offer can create binding obligations before the P&S is signed.
