Closing costs you should expect
There are certain expected expenses linked to closing the sale of a house. These expenses 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 the transaction.
Sellers: As we get through the details of your deal, I'll not only work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also advocate for limited closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are informed of exactly what you're paying for.
Buyers: If you are buying a house in Sarasota County, you will get 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 surprised when you reach closing time. I'll be willing to go over the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that appear to be out of the ordinary.
