Closing in Boston, Done Right

Boston deals have their own details: condo associations, multi-family financing, older title histories. We handle them every week.

01

Condo Closings & 6(d) Certificates

Most Boston sales are condos. We get the 6(d) certificate from the association early and confirm common charges, so nothing holds up closing day.

Questions, answered

Boston Closing FAQs

Do you handle real estate closings in Boston?

Yes. Cherry Tree Title closes purchases, sales and refinances in every Boston neighborhood and throughout Greater Boston. Our office in Lynnfield is about 15 miles north of downtown Boston.

What is a 6(d) certificate?

A 6(d) certificate, named for Massachusetts General Laws chapter 183A section 6(d), is issued by a condominium association. It confirms whether the unit owner owes unpaid common charges. A buyer's attorney and lender need it before a condo sale can close, so we request it early.

Do I need an attorney to close on a house in Massachusetts?

Yes. Massachusetts is an attorney-closing state: the state's highest court has held that a licensed attorney must be substantively involved in conducting a real estate closing. That's why buyers, sellers and lenders in Massachusetts work with a closing attorney rather than only a title or escrow company. Cherry Tree Title's attorneys handle closings throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

What is the Cherry Tree Title 24-hour P&S guarantee?

We review or draft your Purchase & Sale (P&S) agreement within one business day of a signed offer. If we miss that deadline, we credit $250 toward your closing fees.

How do I protect my closing funds from wire fraud?

Never act on wiring instructions sent only by email, especially if they "change" at the last minute. Before you wire any funds, call Cherry Tree Title at a number you already know, (781) 346-6500, and confirm the instructions with a person. We will never change wiring instructions by email.
