• (Google) What does quick closing mean? A quick closing may be a closing scheduled for 30 days or fewer or one which must be completed before the end of the month, as examples. With a quick closing, there is less time to get a mortgage approved; less time to scour the home inspection for details; and less time to prepare for a final settlement
