Contingency Question - Settlement date

[Yali Sharon]

Hey BPers!

I am currently in the final stages of negotiations and hope to go into escrow any day now on a great deal. I am leaving the country in 40 days for 6 weeks and wondering how I should go about dealing with the fact that closing might happen during that time. Should I ask for a clause to be added to the offer contract stating that closing must take place before or after those 6 weeks? And is there a chance that will kill the deal? 

Thanks!

Remote closings are done every day.  They can Fedex the documents and you get notarized, Fedex back. Or, you could have them set up a mobile notary.
