Don't Forget Closing Costs
There are certain standard costs associated with closing the sale of a home. Buyers and sellers usually share these closing costs, as specified in the sales contract.
Many of the closing costs associated with buying a house are associated with getting a loan. At The Elite Lending Team at Milestone Mortgage Corporation
NMLS# 133260, we have extensive experience in mortgage lending, so we can provide you with a comprehensive list of mortgage-related closing costs in your "Loan Estimate".
Loan Estimate (LE)
Soon after you submit your application, we will give you the "Loan Estimate" of your closing costs. The closing costs spelled out in the LE are estimated based on our experience with mortgage loans, but costs often vary a little bit between the Loan Estimate (LE) and closing. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering questions and pointing out costs that sometimes change slightly at closing.
