What does a cash buyer still need to check before closing?

A cash buyer still needs a full inspection to catch hidden property defects, title work to confirm there is no lien or ownership dispute attached to the property, and a review of the seller's disclosure statement, since none of those risks disappear simply because no lender is involved. A Georgia closing attorney handles the title and deed work regardless of financing, but the buyer still decides whether to order an inspection. Joel Boss recommends all of these steps on every cash purchase he handles.
