What closing costs should you expect?

There are certain expected costs associated with closing the sale of a house. These expenses are often divided between the buyer and seller, as dictated in the sales contract. Many are conventional, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Florida to help guide you through the process.

Sellers: As we hammer out your transaction, I'll not only work to get the very best 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 are aware of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you are buying a house in Palm Beach County, you will get a "Good Faith Estimate" (GFE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's past experiences and is required to be within an appropriate range so you're not stunned when you show up at closing time. I'll be glad to look through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates in question.
