Expected closing costs

There are certain basic expenses associated with closing the sale of a house. These costs are usually split between the buyer and seller, as dictated in the sales contract. Many are conventional, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Colorado to help guide you through your deal.

Sellers: As we negotiate your sale, I'll not only work to get the highest sales price, but I'll also push for lower closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll fully explain the closing costs so you are aware of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you're purchasing real estate in Chaffee 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 past experiences and is required to be within a reasonable range so you're not shocked when you reach closing time. I'll be glad to review the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem unusual.
