Sellers: As we hammer out your sale, I'll not only work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also push for reduced closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll give a detailed list of the closing costs so you are aware of exactly what you're paying for.
Buyers: If you are buying a house in Middlesex County, you'll be given a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's past experiences and is required to be within a suitable range so you're not shocked when you come to closing time. I'll be willing to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem unusual.
