Sellers: As we hammer out your deal, I'll not only work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also campaign for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll walk you through the closing costs so you are aware of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you are purchasing a house in Lexington County, you will get a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's previous experience and is required to be within a suitable range so you're not stunned when you get to closing time. I'll be happy to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem unusual.
