About Closing Costs

There are certain standard costs associated with closing the sale of a home. Sellers and buyers customarily split these costs, as specified in the sales contract.

Many of the closing costs associated with buying a home are associated with getting the loan. At Not Your Average Lender, we have extensive experience in residential mortgage lending, so we can compile a comprehensive report on closing costs related to your mortgage in your "Loan Estimate".

The Loan Estimate (Also known as the LE)

Soon after you submit your application, we will provide you with a "Loan Estimate" of your closing costs. We base this cost estimate on our many years of past experience. Please note that while our LEs are very precise, we can't always estimate closing costs to the penny. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering your questions and highlighting costs that can vary a little bit at closing.

Below you'll find a general list of closing costs. We will provide a specific list of your closing costs when we give you a Loan Estimate.
