Gap checks

A final look at the record between the abstract and the closing table.

What it is

Closing the gap in the record.

A gap check is ordered before a real estate closing, after preliminary abstracting and title work are complete. The closing agent should confirm that no liens or judgments have been filed against either party after the preliminary abstract and before funding.

Who receives it

Verbal or written gap checks go to lenders or mortgage brokers once abstracting is finished and before closing.
