Northgate Closings: Real estate closing & conveyancing CRM (demo with sample data)

The challenge

Real estate law firms and closing teams manage dozens of transactions at once, each with its own parties, lender, closing date, documents and money held in trust. Tracked across spreadsheets and inboxes, files slip, closing dates sneak up and nobody is sure which ledgers balance.

Off-the-shelf real estate CRMs focus on agents and lead generation, not on the closing process. We built this demo to show what a purpose-built closing and conveyancing CRM looks like.

Our solution

Every transaction is a file with a type (sale, purchase or mortgage), its parties, lender, closing date, status and outstanding amount. Files move through open, processing, closed and deleted states, and every status change is logged with who made it and when.

The dashboard puts the next closings, funds held in trust, outstanding balances, required property updates, pending charges and ledgers out of balance on one screen. Built-in email with templates, drafts and scheduling keeps client communication tied to the file, and role-based permissions separate what lawyers, clerks and agents can do.
