The Village of Pinehurst!

Few places in the world are like the Village of Pinehurst and Southern Pines area. All located in the heart of the Sandhills of North Carolina.

For almost 100 years, renowned golfers have coveted the well-groomed courses in and around the Village of Pinehurst. Golf's origin in this region dates back to 1899 when Donald Ross began his legacy as course architect. The Village of Pinehurst, designated a National Landmark in 1996, is the only site recognized for its significant role in U.S. golf history. The famous Pinehurst's eight golf courses make it the world's largest golf resort. And they have just announced the plans for additional courses 9 and beyond!

Its active Art Council sponsors a host of activities, including a monthly gallery opening at its home in the historic Campbell House. The Southern Pines town center features a number of independent galleries and The Sunrise Theater is the site of a wide variety of performances.

Unforeseen problems can arise during escrow, and closing dates are never set in stone! Lenders, appraisers, title attorneys, credit check services, or anyone who is involved in the transaction could potentially delay a closing. Stay in close touch with your real estate agent, who will notify you of deadlines and help you deal with delays.

Well-written sales contracts are the key to avoiding problems during escrow. For example, provisions can be included in the agreement that require the buyer to provide evidence of sufficient funds for down payment and closing costs, or to present proof of the ability to obtain homeowner's insurance. Because of new restrictions on insurance policies, the mortgage lender may require insurance before funding the loan.

There is also a section in the sales contract wherein the seller makes a warranty to the buyer of the condition of the property. It is important to make sure that this clause is modified to reflect the seller's transfer disclosure statement. If this is not done, the seller could be required to repair items that are found to be dysfunctional or faulty, and this could add time to the escrow period.
