Plano for Sellers
Get organized early and sell your home faster
Every day, homeowners use Plano to easily and safely coordinate the transfer of ownership of a property they are selling.
Better than a traditional closing company or real estate lawyer.
Traditional closing companies help sellers through a complicated real estate closing process that includes a lot of emails and telephone calls. This means a lot of waiting on updates, chasing down documents and accepting delays.
Plano won’t stop until it’s done. Our automated service is working on your closing 24/7. Our lawyers don’t go on vacation and our service is not out to lunch when you have questions. We get you to closing quicker.

2. Execute a sales contract
With Plano, you, your broker or even the buyer can upload the terms of sale into Plano and generate a legal sales contract that everyone review. Specify details such as how you want to receive payment and what day you would like to close. Once everyone is in agreement, you and the buyer can sign electronically and close the deal.
3. Close instantly and remotely
Know exactly what you and others in the closing process need to get done every step of the way. Our online app keeps you up-to-date and in control of your sale so you can close within as little as 48 hours.
On the day of the close, you don’t need to attend in person. You will receive your funds to your specified account and Plano will coordinate with a trusted local representative to handle the transfer of keys and other details to the new buyer.

The Plano Settlement platform gives you all the information you need to prepare for your sale, then helps you organize and track every step—from receiving an offer to closing the deal. With Plano, selling your house starts today.
Start your closing before you get a buyer
Preparing to close no longer starts once you strike a deal with a buyer. With Plano you can skip the real estate closing attorney altogether. Do the work up front with Plano and be ready to close the moment you agree to an offer.
Top questions for sellers in Mexico

If you ask most notarios in Mexico, the answer could quite likely be no. However, if you find the right notario, you may get to close remotely if you have provided someone local to the notario office a power of attorney to close on your behalf.
At Plano, we don’t think this should be case. In fact, a remote closing is the way to handle all real estate transactions. Within the Plano app, sellers authorize Plano to conclude the transaction their behalf so you don’t have to waste time in the notario’s office.
