• CLOSING DAY
  
  The day on which the formalities of a real estate sale are finished. The certificate of title, abstract, and deed are generally prepared for the closing by an attorney and this cost charged to the buyer. The buyer signs the mortgage, and closing costs are paid. The final closing merely reiterates the original agreement reached in the agreement of sale.
