cost for a duplex

[Dave Schimmels]

I will be closing on our first investment property May 3rd and I'm going through a large real estate agency. I bought the house for $85K. I'm told its estimated around a $5,200 close and of course I asked all the questions prior to us making an offer, to make sure the numbers work in our favor. I was told by the agent 2-4%. If we do the math, we are at a bit over 6%, that's a big difference. Is this a correct percentage or does someone have some advise for my next one? Thanks for any info in advance.
