So you've finally made it through the contract process and you're about to sign over your first born (kidding!)
What are your final steps?
Start calling! You'll need to get ahold of your power company to give them your contact information and to start your account for the day after closing. Public utilities? You'll need to call them as well to get your account set-up - otherwise you could be without water in your new home! Planning to have cable? You should call them as soon as possible to get installation scheduled.
If you've arranged for fuel to be pro-rated, you'll need to figure out how much you need to pay the former homeowner for the remaining fuel in the tank. Your agent should be able to help you determine this amount, but you can always call the company that last serviced it to get an estimate.
After you've done all that, just stretch out those fingers and sign away - you'll be unpacking and settling in to your home in no time!
