Closing workflow guide

One path from accepted offer to final settlement.

Start with the active deal, move through the five broker workspace tabs, and keep offers, documents, services, and settlement tied to the active closing file.

The active deal selection is the context for every tab.
Each tab is a workstream, not a separate product surface.
Buttons should either update the deal, open a focused workflow, or deep-link to the related panel.
Documents, service evidence, and settlement figures stay attached to the active closing file.

Broker workspace tabs

Connected rooms

The closing workflow is not isolated to one screen.

Broker work drives the private closing record. Client, admin, and partner views show scoped pieces of the same deal so each party sees only the actions and evidence they own.

Closing path

Move the closing forward in one guided sequence.

  1. Start on Overview to confirm the active deal, health, priority work, and next blocker.
  2. Use Offers to manage terms, counters, signer routing, and signature packet creation.
  3. Use Documents to control the packet vault, templates, compliance gates, and release rules.
  4. Use Services to resolve documentation, finance, insurance, survey, and partner blockers.
  5. Finish on Settlement to verify escrow, liens, commissions, proceeds, and final statements.
