Closing Costs for Home Real Estate Transactions

"Closing Costs" are the fees that cover various services involved in the sale of a home. Buyers & sellers negotiate the payment of these costs.

As indicated below, many of the buyer's closing costs are related to the costs of getting the loan. At Augusta Mortgage Solutions, we have extensive experience in mortgage lending, so we can compile a comprehensive list of mortgage-related costs in your "Loan Estimate".

Loan Estimates (LEs)

Soon after you apply for a loan, we'll give you the "Loan Estimate" of your costs. The closing costs spelled out in the LE are estimated based on our experience with mortgage loans, but costs usually vary a little bit between the Loan Estimate (LE) and closing. We field questions about closing costs every day at Augusta Mortgage Solutions, so don't hesitate to ask if we can help answer your questions.

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