Looking at the listing via MRED there will be instructions for how to schedule a showing. In most cases this will be via Showing Assist. Click on the button in the MLS which says Showing Assist. You will be prompted to choose a date and a time and fill out your information. You will either be given showing instructions or the agent will be notified and contact you when they know if you are confirmed or not. If there is not an option to use Showing Assist, you should reach out to the agent via the instructions on the MLS to schedule.

Congrats!!! A couple days before the closing you will need to contact the listing agent and set up the final walk-through. Typically, the best time to do this is right before the closing. So if the closing is at 10am, set it up for 9:30am and then drive over to the title company. At the final walk-through you make sure the seller has cleaned out the property and everything looks good. Flush some toilets, open and close a few windows, etc. Here are some examples of situations I’ve run into: The seller took the refrigerator and replaced it with a low quality one. At the closing table, the seller had to give the buyer a credit of $5000. The seller left the property SUPER dirty and had to credit the buyer $250 to clean it up. The seller took an expensive light fixture. The closing was delayed until the next day after the seller reinstalled the fixture and my clients had a second walkthrough. CAUTION! I once told a client that I would do the final walk-through for them as they were out of town.  I thought everything looked great. Two days later my clients moved in and there was a huge stain on the carpet. They blamed me and I ended up having to buy them a new carpet for $900! The moral of the story is don’t do a final walk-through without your client present and make sure to have a keen eye for anything that looks odd. This is the last opportunity to negotiate at the closing table.
