Frequently asked questions

How much are closing costs for a buyer?

Usually 2% to 5% of the purchase price, depending on the state, the lender and the loan. Transfer taxes and title insurance vary the most from place to place.

What is cash to close?

The total you bring on closing day: your down payment plus closing costs and prepaid items, minus any earnest money deposit and seller credits.

Can I lower closing costs?

Compare Loan Estimates from several lenders, shop for title insurance where allowed, ask the seller for credits, or look for state first-time buyer programs.
