@Peter Bui You may want to partner with your lender for an estimate of closing costs using the specifics of the property that you're interested in purchasing and the type of financing that you have secured, during that conversation you can ask how closing costs are calculated to see if the magic number of 3% makes sense in your situation

Also, would banks vs private lenders vs HML look at this different?

Another reason I like apartment complexes any vacancy does not usually hurt you like it would in a residential multifamily place would.Some Private Lenders will also lend to you including any repairs but I understand the importance of using a Bank to get a "house hacking" loan and its low down payment..
