There are certain standard costs associated with closing the sale of a home. Sellers and buyers customarily share these closing costs, as the sales contract specifies.
Many of the costs associated with buying a home are associated with getting a mortgage. At American Commerce Mortgage, we are highly experienced in residential mortgage lending, so we can compile a comprehensive list of mortgage-related costs in your "Loan Estimate".
Buyers get a "Loan Estimate" of closing costs at the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. We base this cost estimate on our extensive past experience. Please note that while our LEs are very accurate, we cannot always estimate closing costs to the penny. We field questions about these costs every day at American Commerce Mortgage, so please be sure to ask if you have questions.
We've provided a general list of closing costs below, but we'll provide you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, soon after you have completed your application. At American Commerce Mortgage, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we'll be sure to let you know immediately.
