Recording journal entry for settlement statement

Try not to use JEs in QB - there's usually a better way.

Buying something can always be entered as a vendor bill.

Simple buys can be just a check or a CC entry - but this isnt a simple one - create a BILL

the vendor name can be the actual vendor, or the selling agent, or escrow agent 

Now you have the choice of creating and using items, and/or entering directly to accounts.

Enter everthing you listed above to the appropriate accounts and items.

The pay the bill for the cash amount due to close.
