NCTLC — NC Transaction & Listing Coordination

Coordinate the file now, pay when the deal funds

Pay-at-closing keeps the per-file cost off your desk until the deal funds. The fee is deducted from closing proceeds through the closing attorney rather than paid upfront.

How it works

Three stages, no money down

01

File opens, work begins

NCTLC opens the file on receiving the executed contract and party contacts, builds the coordination checklist, and begins active management the same day.

02

Full coordination through closing

NCTLC tracks deadlines, coordinates vendors, manages documents, runs the pre-close audit, and provides closing-day support—exactly as on any file.

03

Fee deducted at closing

The coordination fee is invoiced and deducted from closing proceeds through the closing attorney as a line item on the settlement statement. Zero upfront cost.

Option A

Standard Billing

  • Invoice sent at file intake
  • Due within 7 days (net-7)
  • Simple and predictable
Option B

Pay at Closing

  • Fee deducted from closing proceeds via closing attorney
  • Written authorization required
  • Appears as a line item on the settlement statement
Eligible services
  • Standard TC ($449)
  • Dual-Side TC ($675)
  • Listing + TC Bundle ($699)
  • Listing Launch Standard ($299)
  • Listing Launch Rush ($379)

If a file does not close, the earned portion is billable. Under pay-at-closing, the client remains responsible for completed work, with specifics governed by the Master Service Agreement.
