All residential real estate sales incurs certain costs. Sellers and buyers customarily share these costs, as the real estate sales contract specifies.
Many of the costs associated with buying residential real estate are associated with getting a mortgage. Since AmeriBest Mortgage is highly experienced with mortgages & closings, we often explain the details of closing costs.
Very soon after you apply for a loan, we'll give you the "Loan Estimate" of your closing costs. The closing costs spelled out in the LE are estimated based on our experience with mortgage loans, but costs often vary a little bit between delivery of the Loan Estimate (LE) and closing. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering your questions and pointing out costs that sometimes vary a little bit at the closing table.
We've provided a general list of these costs below, but we'll give you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, soon after you have completed your application. At AmeriBest Mortgage, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we will be sure to let you know immediately.
