Closing Costs
There are certain standard costs related to closing the sale of a house. Sellers and buyers usually share these costs, as specified in the sales contract.
As the list below indicates, many of the costs result from getting your mortgage.
Since First Community Mortgage has experience with mortgages and closings.
Loan Estimates (LEs)
Buyers will get a "Loan Estimate" of closing costs at the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. We base this closing cost estimate on our many years of past experience. Please note that while our LEs are very accurate, we can't always predict closing costs to the penny. We handle buyers' questions about closing costs every day at First Community Mortgage., so please be sure to ask if you have questions.
We've provided a general list of closing costs below, but we will give you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, very soon after you complete your loan application. At First Community Mortgage, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we'll be sure to let you know immediately.
We can only offer an estimated quote for this area. You choose your own home insurance company for your insurance premiums, and the property taxes are determined by the local revenue office.
