Closing costs you should expect

Many are customary, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in SOUTH CAROLINA to help guide you through the transaction.

Sellers: As we negotiate your transaction, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are aware of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: When purchasing a house in Lexington County, you will receive 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 an acceptable range so you're not shocked when you arrive at closing time. I'll be glad to go over the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that are uncertain.
