Expected closing costs

There are certain expected fees associated with closing the sale of a house. These fees are commonly split between the buyer and seller, as spelled out in the sales contract. Many are universal, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in SOUTH CAROLINA to help show you through your transaction.

Sellers: As we hammer out your sale, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also push for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll fully explain the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you are buying a home in Lexington County, you'll 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 prior experience and is required to be within a suitable range so you're not stunned when you come to the closing appointment. I'll be willing to look at the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem questionable.
