When do I need to move out?

You must move out by your closing date. On closing day, ownership of the home transfers to Opendoor, so all of your personal belongings need to be out of the property before that happens.

Where to find your closing date

Your closing date is shown on your dashboard at opendoor.com. If you're unsure of the exact date, reach out to your Home Sale Advisor for confirmation.

What if I need more time?

If your closing date is approaching and you're not ready to move out, you can request late checkout (also called post-close occupancy). Late checkout lets you stay in the home for up to 17 days after closing. It requires a security deposit and a daily rate, and it must be arranged before closing day.

See our late checkout article for full details on how to set this up.

Plan ahead

Moving takes longer than most people expect. Here's how to stay on track:

• Start packing early — at least two to three weeks before your closing date.
• Schedule movers well in advance — especially during busy seasons (summer, end of month), availability fills up fast.
• Review the pre-closing checklist to make sure you haven't missed anything before handing over the keys.

Tip: Set a personal deadline to be fully moved out one to two days before closing. This gives you a buffer in case anything comes up on moving day.
