It is commonplace to allow sellers to stay in a property after closing and frequently this term is helpful in getting an offer accepted.

This is why the seller possession after closing agreement is supposed to be for short time frames and a standard lease should be used for longer term arrangements with language specifically tailored to prevent this.

But the main issue? The buyer agent should have insisted on a MUCH higher per day charge if the seller stayed past the agreed upon date. Instead of $75 which is less than a hotel stay or a mortgage in some cases, make the charge at least double that amount or more. This protects you as the buyer for this type of scenario.

To give you perspective, some new construction builders charge buyers $500/day for every day of delay past the original closing date agreement. It’s a small detail but this one line item on the agreement illustrates the importance of having a realtor who knows what she or he is doing. 😀

Home sellers refuse to move out and let buyer move in You've put down the deposit, the deed is signed, and you think the house is yours. But imagine if, even after all that, the previous owners won't move out. That's what a Wake County woman says is happening to her right now.
