If you anticipate a problem due to logistics to turn over the keys to the buyer at the closing, you should make a request for a deviation as quickly as possible. If the buyer is also selling their home on the same date, there may be a logistics problem with the buyer also, making it impossible for the buyer to deviate.

Even though there is always a slight possibility of the deal not closing until you are actually sitting at the closing table, you should proceed forward and make the necessary arrangements to comply with the occupancy as specified in the contract. 12.
