Expected closing costs

There are certain basic costs linked to closing the sale of a house. These fees are usually split between the buyer and seller, as directed in the sales contract. Many are customary, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Florida to help show you through your process.

Sellers: As we negotiate your transaction, not only will I work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also campaign for reduced closing costs. And once we've come to an agreement, I'll fully explain the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you're buying a house in Escambia County, you'll receive 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 prior experience and is required to be within a reasonable range so you're not startled when you arrive at closing time. I'll be glad to review the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem off.
