All residential real estate sales incurs fixed costs. Buyers and sellers customarily split these closing costs, as specified in the sales contract.
Many of the costs associated with buying residential real estate are associated with getting the mortgage. Since Nationwide Home Loans is highly experienced with closings and mortgages, we can help you understand your closing costs.
Buyers will get a "Loan Estimate" of closing costs at the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. The closing costs specified in the LE are estimated based on our 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 your questions and pointing out costs that sometimes change slightly at closing.
Below is a fairly generic list of costs for buying residential real estate. We will always provide a specific list of your closing costs when we give you a Loan Estimate.
