Clear-to-Close

Underwriting's final blessing — your loan is approved and closing can be scheduled.

Clear-to-Close (CTC) is the milestone every buyer waits for: the underwriter has reviewed your file end to end — income, assets, credit, appraisal, title — and confirmed the loan is ready to fund. From CTC, we typically close within three to five business days.

Key Points

The Discipline Window

Between contract and CTC — no new credit, no large deposits, no job changes.

Closing Disclosure

Delivered at least three business days before closing detailing every dollar.
