What closing costs should you expect?

Many are customary, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Florida to help lead you through the deal.

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 give a detailed list of the closing costs so you are informed of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: When buying a home in Orange 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 previous experience and is required to be within a suitable range so you're not shocked when you show up at closing time. I'll be glad to go through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem questionable.
