Don't Forget Closing Costs
All residential real estate transactions incurs certain costs. Sellers and buyers almost always share these closing costs, as the real estate sales contract specifies.
As the list below indicates, many of the costs result from getting your mortgage. At ADVISORY MORTGAGE, we have extensive experience in residential mortgage lending, so we can compile a comprehensive list of closing costs related to your mortgage in your "Loan Estimate".
Loan Estimates (LEs)
Soon after you apply for a loan, we will provide you with the "Loan Estimate" of your costs. The closing costs enumerated in the LE are estimated based on ADVISORY MORTGAGE's experience with mortgage loans, but costs often change by small amounts between delivery of the LE and closing. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering questions and highlighting costs that sometimes vary a little bit at the closing table.
Below you'll find a fairly general list of costs for buying a home. We will always provide you with a specific list of your closing costs when we deliver your Loan Estimate.
