Closing-day recheck of tenant occupancy
On closing day, verify occupancy as a current fact, because a file reviewed weeks earlier may no longer describe who possesses the property. Reconfirm the operative lease status, recent rent payments, notices or settlement documents, keys and the agreed handover condition. If vacant delivery is a contractual condition, the final check should establish actual possession and key control rather than rely only on a written promise. If the buyer is acquiring with a tenant in place, preserve the lease file, payment/deposit position and contact/handover information needed for the transition of landlord functions.
FAQ
Can utility transfer prove vacancy? No. Cancellation or transfer of a utility account may support the timeline but does not establish that a tenant’s legal or physical possession has ended.
What if the tenant situation differs from the contract? Stop the affected release of funds or acceptance of possession, document the difference and resolve whether the buyer will accept occupied delivery, require performance, reprice or postpone in accordance with the contract and applicable law.
