Closing costs you should expect

Many are universal, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in North Carolina to help guide you through the process.

Sellers: As we negotiate your transaction, not only will I work to get the highest sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll give a detailed list of the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: When purchasing a home in Wake County, you will get a "Loan Estimate" (LE) 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 stunned when you show up at closing time. I'll be willing to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
