Closing cost on first home

Chess White
Posted

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen, 

I have finally sealed the deal with closing on my first house in Virginia. 

I come to you seeking advise! 

This is the  closing cost itemized I was sent, does this look normal? 

I asked my realtor to have the buyer pay for all closing cost, so I am a little confused on why I am still paying out of pocket close to 6k.

$3500 for escrow and $2600 left over amount. 

When I signed the contract it said they would cover 3% of the closing cost and I was under the impression that it would not go over that amount. I was also told I would get my escrow back at the closing, I feel misinformed or lied too.  

I am currently in the renegotiation phase (closes today) for the issues found during the general inspection. 

My realtor has told me that I couldn't ask for anymore credit because we had hit the max amount already (again i feel like another lie) 

Any advise or help is appreciated.
