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 campaign for limited closing costs. And once we've come to an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are aware of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you are buying real estate in Kern County, you will receive a "Loan Estimate" (LE) 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 an acceptable range so you're not shocked when you get to the closing table. I'll be glad to review the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates in question.
