Anticipated closing costs

There are certain typical expenses accompanying closing the sale of a house. These expenses are usually split between the buyer and seller, as instructed in the sales contract. Many are universal, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Washington to help guide you through the deal. We can run an estimated closing cost report for all buyers and sellers.

Sellers: As we negotiate your deal, We'll not only work to get the very best sales price, but we will also advocate for limited closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, we'll give an estimated list of the closing costs so you know approximately what you're paying.

Buyers: If you are buying real estate in King County, you'll 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 previous experience and is required to be within a reasonable range so you're not shocked when you arrive at the closing table.
