Important Information!
Please read prior to ordering
a 6d certificate
and accompanying documentation!
Massachusetts Condominium Sale or Refinance Fact
Sheet
When you sell or refinance your condominium, you
are required by law to provide a 6d certificate
at the closing. A 6d certificate certifies that
all common area fees and special assessments are
paid and current. The bank/mortgage company may
also ask you to provide additional documentation.
It is important to understand that your closing
may be delayed without complete documentation.
Barkan is pleased to provide all needed documents
at prevailing rates. You can preview a list
of documents, some or all of which may be
required to complete a sale or refinancing of your
property.
Once issued, a 6d certificate remains current only
through a planned closing date.
For this reason we advise you to begin the
process of acquiring the certificate and accompanying
documentation at least 30 days prior to a planned
sale or refinancing. We need 10 working days to
process your request.
In the event you are unable to make a timely request,
there are additional charges for "rush" processing
and for overnight delivery of 6d certificates and
accompanying documents. Payment must be received
prior to issuance.
It makes sense to request a schedule of all required
documentation from your attorney, broker or lender.
At closing you will also be asked to provide a "certificate
of insurance."
You can contact your insurance company directly
or request a certificate through Barkan (a processing
fee applies).
In addition, some banks/mortgage companies request
condominium questionnaires, copies of the condominium
documents, budgets, and meeting minutes. We suggest
you ask your bank/mortgage company which documents
they require for the closing.
