Anticipated closing costs

There are certain normal fees linked to closing the sale of a house. These expenses are usually divided 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 California to help guide you through your process.

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

Buyers: If you're purchasing real estate in Kern County, you will be given 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 a suitable range so you're not shocked when you reach the closing appointment. I'll be willing to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem off.
