Closing costs you should expect

There are certain basic costs related to closing the sale of a house. These costs are commonly split between the buyer and seller, as spelled out in the sales contract. Many are universal, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Maryland to help lead you through the process.

Sellers: As we hammer out your transaction, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll fully clarify the closing costs so you are aware of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you're purchasing a property in Anne Arundel County, you'll be given 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 an appropriate range so you're not stunned when you arrive at the closing table. I'll be happy to go through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem unusual.
