What closing costs should you expect?

There are certain typical costs linked to closing the sale of a house. These costs are commonly split between the buyer and seller, as noted in the sales contract. Many are customary, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in North Carolina to help guide you through the transaction.

Sellers: As we get through the details of your deal, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll fully clarify the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you're purchasing a house in Charlotte, you will 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 previous experience and is required to be within a tolerable range so you're not shocked when you show up at the closing table. I'll be willing to look through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem questionable.
