Our mission and passion is to make the closing process easier, smoother, and less stressful — even in a pandemic. We are following CDC and Dane County guidelines as we continue to return to more normal closings.
Following the September 10, 2021 Health Department guidance, we currently require masks in our office. Face coverings are required among people ages two and older when in any enclosed space.
Closing Procedures:
Masks Required: Pursuant to Dane County rules, Homestead requires all clients, customers, and guests to wear face coverings or masks indoors.
If you prefer not to wear a mask, we can accommodate a curb-side closing from your car or outdoors (weather permitting).
Closing Room, Digital, or Drive-Up Closing: You can sign your documents in our closing room or from your car as a “drive-up closing.” Realtors and lenders are welcomed at the closing! We may limit the closing room to 8 people. On nice days, we also offer West Side closings at outside tables.
We can also accommodate a fully digital, on-line, Remote Online Notary closing for sellers and certain buyers. On-Line closings are generally not yet available for loans (check with your lender).
Health and Safety: Our closing rooms are sanitized after every closing and have HEPPA air purifiers running at all times. We offer hand sanitizer and wipes, and take every precaution to keep you safe and comfortable.
Covid-19 Agreement:
Please do not come to closing if you have any symptoms or risks associated with Covid-19. We can make alternative, remote signing arrangements. Do not come to closing if:
- You have had a cough, flu symptoms, or fever higher than 100 in the last 10 days.
- You have been around anyone showing symptoms of Covid-19 in the last 14 days.
- You have travelled internationally in the last 14 days.
- You or anyone in your household has tested positive for Covid-19 and have had any symptoms in the last 14 days.
We look forward to seeing you at closing!
