Closing Costs - Don't Settle
A lot of first time buyers seem to drop their jaw when they see the breakdown of closing costs & how much money can be needed out of pocket.... We recommend finding & partnering with the right agent, to get closing costs negotiated upfront. In most cases, there is always an option to build closing costs into the sales price as long as the property will appraise & this can save a first time home buyer THOUSANDS without having to come out of pocket & without impacting the monthly payment more than 10-15 dollars a month.
