About Closing Costs

There are certain standard costs related to closing the sale of a home. Sellers and buyers almost always split these closing costs, as the real estate sales contract specifies.

As you'll see below, many of the buyer's closing costs cover the costs of getting the mortgage loan. At Foxfield Financial, we have extensive experience in mortgage lending, so we can provide you with a comprehensive list of mortgage-related closing costs in your "Loan Estimate".

The Loan Estimate (LE)

Soon after you apply for a loan, we will provide you with the "Loan Estimate" of your costs. The closing costs enumerated in the LE are estimated based on Foxfield Financial's experience with mortgage loans, but costs usually change by small amounts between the Loan Estimate (LE) and closing. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering questions and pointing out costs that can vary a little bit at the closing table.

Below you'll find a fairly generic list of costs for buying residential real estate. We will always provide you with a specific list of your closing costs when we deliver your Loan Estimate.
