You only need to make it through the closing to finally get your home. But there are a surprising number of details involved in a closing, all of which need to be wrapped up before you officially become the owner of the home. Failing to take care of everything could cause the closing to fall through. Your agent will finalize all the loose ends so that the closing goes through without issue. Your agent should be there alongside you at the closing so you have support and advice should you need it.
