Are you getting paid at closing?

[Mike Mitchell]

I sell properties and hold the note so I was surprised a couple of days ago when a friend told me that he had closed on the sale of a property but would have to go back the following day to pick up his check. That's not my def. of a closing, that's a signing! Is this happening in other parts of the country? My buddy brings a signed warranty deed to the table and exchanges it for nothing until tomorrow!
