Anticipated closing costs

There are certain normal fees related to closing the sale of a house. These costs are commonly split between the buyer and seller, as dictated in the sales contract. Many are customary, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Washington to help guide you through the transaction.

Sellers: As we get through the details of your sale, I'll not only work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also push for lower closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll explain in detail the closing costs so you are informed of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: When purchasing a house in Cowlitz County, you will 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 shocked when you show up at the closing appointment. I'll be willing to review the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
