No deposit or occupancy schedule has been published. A worksheet and question list to prepare without assuming numbers.
Pre-construction homes are typically paid for in stages: deposits during construction and the balance at closing. Walnut Creek has not published a deposit structure or closing timeline as of October 10, 2026, so this guide gives you a framework to fill in when real numbers arrive.
| Stage | Amount | Timing | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deposit on signing | Not released | Not released | Agreement |
| Subsequent deposits | Not released | Not released | Agreement |
| Closing balance and mortgage | Not released | Not released | Agreement |
| Closing adjustments | Ask lawyer | At closing | Agreement schedules |
| Land transfer tax and legal fees | Ask lawyer | At closing | Lawyer estimate |
