Residential Related FAQ’s

What happens at closing?2025-10-30T05:26:07+00:00

You’ll review and sign all necessary documents. Once funds are collected and disbursed, RSI Title records your deed and mortgage, officially transferring ownership.

When will the deed be recorded in my name?2026-05-28T01:47:44+00:00

After settlement is complete and all funds are confirmed, we submit the deed and deed of trust to the county land records office — typically within 1–3 business days. Due to some county processing backlogs, the official recording date on the documents may be a few days after your closing date. Your title insurance coverage begins on your closing date regardless.

Can I close remotely?2025-10-30T00:58:41+00:00

Yes. We offer remote online notarization and virtual closings in Maryland, Virginia, and D.C., subject to lender approval and other restrictions based on the laws of the jurisdiction.

What costs should I expect to pay at closing?2026-05-28T01:48:28+00:00

Buyer closing costs typically include:

  • Lender fees (origination, appraisal, underwriting)
  • Title search and title insurance premiums
  • Settlement/closing fee
  • State and county recordation/transfer taxes
  • Prepaid interest, homeowner’s insurance, and escrow reserves

Total buyer closing costs generally range from 2–5% of the purchase price in the MD/DC/VA area. Your Loan Estimate from your lender will give you a detailed breakdown.

What is escrow, and how does it work?2025-10-30T00:56:40+00:00

Escrow means we hold funds (such as your earnest money) in a secure account until all contract conditions are met. At closing, we disburse funds to the seller, lenders, and other parties. We are licensed, insured, bonded and have decades of experience to ensure the utmost professionalism and security of your funds. We also invest in the most advanced technology to further protect your personal data.
