A Closer Look Inside Our Closing Process

As proud homebuilders in the DFW area for years now, Riverside Homebuilders understands that the journey to homeownership is a monumental one, and the final step of this journey—the closing process—deserves special attention. Handing over the keys to your top-quality new home in DFW is undoubtedly a rewarding moment, and it’s important to have a trusted team to ensure that this transition is as smooth as possible, which is exactly what our phenomenal closing department is dedicated to. 

From verifying the important documents to providing superior customer service and guidance, read below to hear from our fantastic closing department and get a closer look inside the heart of your homeownership journey.

Expertise that speaks volumes

While many builders may not even have a dedicated closing department, Riverside Homebuilders understands the significance of this crucial step and prioritizes it to ensure your experience is nothing short of exceptional. Our closing department is staffed with experts who have an in-depth understanding of the homebuilding landscape in the Dallas-Fort Worth area—including Stephanie McGuire, our Closing Department Supervisor, Brittany LaJaunie, our Closing Coordinator, and Kelly Parnell, our Closing Assistant. With over 30 years of combined industry experience, their extensive knowledge not only expedites the process—but also provides you with invaluable insights. Whether it’s explaining the closing necessities or guiding you through the intricacies of paperwork, these experts are dedicated to simplifying the closing process to provide an incredible experience for everyone who walks through our doors.

A closer look inside the closing process

Before the excitement of moving into a new home begins, there's a crucial step that stands between you and the keys to your dream abode—the closing process. While it may seem like a daunting thing to take on, our closing department makes it feel like a breeze, and Stephanie can certainly attest to this process.

“It’s closing day! The closing process is the final step in the homebuying process,” she explains. “Basically, this is where all the important documents are signed and verified. First, the buyer will complete their final walk and sign off on the home to their satisfaction. The homebuyer is then notified of the time of closing and the location where the closing will take place. Once both parties sign their closing documents, the title company will send the signed documents to the lender for verification for funding. The funding process can take a couple of hours or longer, but in certain cases, we fund immediately and we release keys. As soon as the lender issues funding authorization to the title company, we notify the buyers, release keys and the buyers take possession of their new home!”

At Riverside Homebuilders, we deeply understand the significance of this day, and that's why we've cultivated a closing department that not only oversees the paperwork—but also ensures that the transition is seamless. Stephanie and her team play a crucial role in this process, guiding you through each document, clarifying any doubts and making sure every detail is finalized for you to step into your new home with ease, efficiency and confidence. 

“When you have a closing department with a homebuilding company, the buyers are prioritized,” Stephanie says. “The closing department is solely dedicated to getting our buyers successfully through the process and providing superior customer service to our clients that, in return, creates an exceptional homebuying experience.”

Experience the best of homeownership with Riverside Homebuilders

The closing day might seem like the end of a long journey, but for us at Riverside Homebuilders, it marks the beginning of a new chapter. It's the moment when all the meticulous planning, hard work and dedication come together to hand over not just a house—but a home filled with unforgettable moments and a lifetime of happiness. 

If you’re a new homeowner looking to make the closing process as smooth as possible, Stephanie’s advice is simple: “Purchasing a new home is an exciting time, but can become overwhelming. Be very proactive and provide any documentation requested from the lender or title company in a timely manner, as this will ensure there will be no delays and you will close on time. We, the closing team, are always here to help you with any questions or concerns you may have during the process!”

From the first meeting to the closing process, we're here to make sure your journey culminates in the best way possible, and with our remarkable closing department by your side, it certainly will.

“Just wanted to let you all know that the lending team referred to us by Kevin in Oak Ridge did a phenomenal job throughout the entire process.  The GMB-Walton team is who we were working with.  Donnie Walton had some not so enthusiastic phone calls from me and some hoops to jump through and he did it with professionalism and was so positive throughout this process.  Never has this been a wonderful process in our life it can be stressful and so personal beings they have our most personal information and details.  Please acknowledge them and their efforts.” Laura Johnson
