"Closing Costs" are the fees which pay for the various services involved when you sell or buy a house. Buyers and sellers negotiate to decide how to share these closing costs.
As the list below indicates, many of the costs result from getting your mortgage. At Bridge View Funding, we are highly experienced in mortgage lending, so we can compile a comprehensive report on costs related to your mortgage in your "Good Faith Estimate".
Good Faith Estimates (GFEs)
Buyers get a "Good Faith Estimate" of closing costs at the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. The closing cost estimate comes out of the loan officer's past experience. It's important to note that while our GFEs are very accurate, we cannot always predict costs to the penny. We handle questions about closing costs every day at Bridge View Funding, so don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions.
We've provided a general list of closing costs below, but we'll provide you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, soon after you complete your loan application. At Bridge View Funding, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we will be sure to let you know immediately.
