Seller is out of state

[Malik Batchelor]

I’ ve mailed a purchase and sales contract to a seller and have received it backed signed today but I am just confused on how the closing process is going to work how will the seller get all the documents handed over if they won’t be physically there on the closing date? Any help would be appreciated

Likely they will have everything notarized and then the signed forms will be faxed with the official portion being sent via registered priority mail.

I closed on 2 houses from Spain (One purchase and one sale) and that is how I did it. 

The seller could also grant power of attorney to a relative if they live near-by and have them sign in their place if the state allows that.
