House Closing Roof Concerns

Summary

Closing on a house in Texas with an incomplete roof replacement is possible, depending on contract terms and lender requirements. Consider adding a contract clause for the roof replacement, arranging escrow funds, or obtaining a written agreement from the seller. Confirm with your lender if the roof must be completed before closing and ensure all agreements are documented. Discuss these options with your real estate agent and lender for a successful closing.
