What are Closing Costs?

Every home sale involves fixed costs. Buyers and sellers customarily share these costs, as the sales contract specifies.

As indicated below, many of the costs result from getting your mortgage. At Foxfield Financial, we have extensive experience in mortgage lending, so we can provide you with a comprehensive list of costs related to your mortgage in your "Loan Estimate".

Loan Estimates (LEs)

Buyers get a "Loan Estimate" of closing costs around the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. The closing costs enumerated in the LE are estimated based on Foxfield Financial's experience with mortgage loans, but costs usually vary by small amounts between the Loan Estimate (LE) and closing. We handle buyers' questions about these costs every day at Foxfield Financial, so don't hesitate to contact us if we can help answer your questions.

We've provided a general list of these costs below, but we will give you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, very soon after you complete your application. At Foxfield Financial, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we'll be sure to let you know immediately.
