Anticipated closing costs

Many are conventional, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in California to help show you through the transaction.

Sellers: As we get through the details of your transaction, not only will I work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've come to an agreement, I'll give a detailed list of the closing costs so you know exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you are purchasing a house 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 prior experience and is required to be within an acceptable range so you're not surprised when you come to the closing table. I'll be happy to go through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that are uncertain.
