Closing cost on first home
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.
