How Much Are Mortgage Closing Costs? | The Complete Guide

[@msjtathe]

Just got my closing disclosure yesterday, I close on Monday 🙂

[@inekawalker2449]

How is your house ownership going?

[@msjtathe]

@@inekawalker2449 homeownership is awesome nothing like having your own. I bought a duplex and having trouble finding a good candidate to rent to. And of course you notice cosmetic details that you hadn't until living in the home. But overall no regrets and I have some diy projects to start when it warms up 🙂

[@markhouston7.334]

Which fha loan did you go or where do I start ?

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Congratulations! I hope you are enjoying your home.

[@tinaf600]

Congratulations sis 🥳

[@wowiesplace5520]

We won the house we love!! Thank you for all your videos it helped us so much when we are in the process of buying. We made an offer October 17 and we closed November 18. Your videos are so easy to understand and your voice is very calming it relaxes my nerves 😁😂. Seriously thank you for all you do 💕

[@itzesmi]

I’ve educated myself in the home buying process but this is the Most needed knowledge to know when purchasing a house! Great breakdown. Now we’re getting ready to save up more for closing cost 💲

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Glad it was helpful!

[@markpineda5404]

The simplicity in this video is unbelievable ! Great Job !

[@Pythonette]

When we thought we'd be getting FHA, I secured a 6% seller credit. Then, we qualified for Conv 97. So, as you know, can't get >3%. While searching and researching, I was led to believe that there were so many more options to help with closing/DP for low-income first-time buyers, but, I'm buying in NY state, and it's been a tremendous challenge, and I'm sweating bullets.

[@drewcoleman738]

The 3 percent thing is a willy nilly thing. If it's a recurring thing (like taxes) the seller can exceed that 3 percent. It's a weird caviat, but at 3% can exceed that 3%

[@QueenKunta]

Did everything work out?

[@daveysodyssey9990]

I am closing next Monday. My heart is so full! I can’t WAIT!!

3 years old but still very…… helpful. The best video ever. Thank you

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you found it helpful.

[@JM-fi7uc]

Every state is different! Check your region and ask your broker and mortgage lender what closing costs are in your area. In some parts of New York you have to deposit 12 MONTHS of property tax in escrow at closing! Some counties charge a mortgage tax as high as 1.5% of your mortgage!

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Great addition!

[@sierraon28s]

I’m about to close escrow my question is what happens to my $10,000 deposit to open escrow ? I’m looking at $11,000 for closing cost & $14,000 down payment

[@JoshuaGraves]

This is really great, your videos are solid. It would be nice to show where the lender credit is on the LE, sometimes loan officers go "borrower paid" and charge the client for the origination fee instead of including it all in YSP. When a loan officer does this, for example the credit for closing costs will often times be the same as the origination fee.

[@drewcoleman738]

That is why the closing disclosure is the most important document when knowing who is paying for what

[@srosellerjr]

I am closing on Tuesday, and I needed this. I feel like they ask too much money, but now it kind of makes sense.

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Nice! Best of luck!

[@Adolfo45tovar]

How much did they ask for? If you don’t mind. I feel they are asking too much for my closing cost

[@bidmcms3]

They absolutely ask for too much. Just closed today… with a nice check for $23,000. For what, a few hours of clerical work?!!!

[@imranhabib8872]

I am very thankful to you and watching your on each step of my home buying process and now I am on he stage of closing disclosure and the exact things I saw on that it’s help me to talk to my lender and negotiate as. Thanks very much againg

[@gottiic6529]

Question my monthly payment went up higher on my CD but it states im paying for my home owners insurance at closing for the year is the 137$ monthly payments for homeowners still added on the mortgage?

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

You have to pay the full year of insurance up front. In addition, you make monthly payments via your mortgage payment into an escrow account to pay the upcoming years insurance payment.

[@joshstane5926]

Offer gets accepted but paperwork takes 30-45 days correct? While this is going on you can't move in correct because both buyer and seller can still back out until closing paperwork is signed. Is this all correct?

[@psych007]

wow. this is the clearest, and most comprehensive yet easy to follow I have seen this explained. Thank you

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

You're very welcome!

[@stephenbeecher7545]

Question: Seller agrees to 3% of $400,000 sales price as closing cost credit. That is $12,000. Are reserves for impound accounts for tax and Insurance considered closing costs which qualify for seller credits? Also, if you paid your home inspector directly, does that show up on closing statement and credited by seller as a qualified closing cost?

[@peacebeteal]

Can you do an updated version of this? Or is it the exact same?

[@joelglass2575]

Thank you so much, I just got my CD today!!

[@katherineweinsheim1988]

Do you have to run your credit to get a loan estimate from lenders? Do you ask what your lender fees are prior to getting pre-approved for mortgages?

[@towersroofinginc422]

Your videos explaining everything are truly the BEST!!

[@CynthiaOvv]

So if in our offer we asked for closing costs. Does that mean the only thing we pay for is the down payment? Or do we pay for inspection and appraisal? Can you do a video about that process, and who chooses the inspector and appraiser.

[@chonkydonklage]

You pick the inspector (usually your realtor has one ready for you); you pay for the inspector; you pay for the appraisal but the lender picks the appraiser.

[@dj.1094]

Yes you are responsible for paying for the inspection and appraisal. Depending in the type of loan you get you may still need to come out of pocket for closing costs.

[@drewcoleman738]

What you need to understand is that if the seller gives you concessions, it will be limited to your LTV. say you’re putting 3% on a primary, the concession is capped at 3%. Even if they pay for the appraisal and inspection at close, there are caps for concessions. Your broker should be able to steer you through that

[@Blue_Angel.555]

[@Limor_SFV_LA_Realtor]

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@luomanfei]

Got a question for you. We are buying a rental property that is 1/3 of the purchase price of of our primary residence but the closing cost is almost the same I think even more on the rental property. Primary residence is 5% down, 2.875 % rate and rental property is 20%, 5.99% rate. I am trying to make sense of that. Can you explain a little bit on that topic? Thank you!!

[@lnln6631]

Hi, My house price was 137500 and i paid 5% down payment. And deposit 5000 cad. But at the closing cost from lawyer office asked for 11900 cad. This is not correct one right? Plz answer on this question, its a big help.

[@lovelyrobles]

[@katherineweinsheim1988]

Do construction to perm loans have the same closing cost ? Does the bank give you a closing disclosure? What if someone didn’t have all the closing cost ? Does the contract just end ? Or is there a fee that s charged if the clients didn’t do their homework and know about the extra costs?

[@AnthonyLongoria-Kun]

Silly question, but when are you supposed to pay closing cost. I'm assuming at the end right? I'm barely at option phase and I'm on the edge hoping everything works out 😅

[@libatako]

At the end when you sign all the documents, everyone is there from the lawyers to the agents

[@laurabook9492]

When the seller is signing legally giving you ownership of the he house, you get the house keys and both you and seller pays their portion of closing costs. On that day the house is yours to move in.

[@drewcoleman738]

On the day you sign the note for a purchase is when you pay the money to finalize the loan. If you sign on a day, or after the fed cannot wire the funds, you won’t get the home until then. Funded is what counts for when you are allowed the keys.

[@James-id5xq]

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

[@jamesskipper252]

I just learned something from your video. I can offer over asking price if I need some help with closing costs as long as the house appraises for that amount. Wish I would’ve watched your video yesterday. I was outbid for a house because I offered list price with a $5k seller concession in closing costs.

[@yoshigolfer1512]

Highly informative!! Much appreciated

[@Silverdragon517]

What is the difference between interest rate and APR on the closing documents?

[@drewcoleman738]

Interest rare is what you pay on the principal balance. APR is taking into account other costs. APR comes into play like price per square feet. Like if these five houses are $150 per square feet and this sixth house is $250 per square feet, what’s up with that?

[@rrg7701]

I have learned a lot from watching your videos. Thanks a ton!

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!

[@uriah117]

This is perfect timing - Thanks for the video! :D

[@harmeetsokhi]

Thanks for the informative video... Have a query.. If the ufmip on an fha loan is 4000 $ and the borrower pays 1000 from his pocket and gets 3000 added to the loan, what value will be mentioned in the closing costs section as a mortgage premium?

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

The whole premium legally has to be disclosed. In that situation, the Loan Estimate would list: - FHA UFMIP $4,000 - Financed Closing Costs $3,000 ^ So $3,000 is in the loan amount and $1,000 of it is paid in the closing costs total.

[@harmeetsokhi]

Your lender can give you an estimate of all closing costs

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

[@joshuakeeton8472]

My wife and I are currently trying to win the house we love. At what point do you ask for seller credit? Even if it's new construction?

[@THEGAMINGHELP101]

If it's new construction they need to fix it.

[@drewcoleman738]

If it’s new construction, always ask for the max seller credit as the most likely will give it to you. You might have to use their title company or lender, so that is something to think about as the rate or charges might mitigate the actual credit.

[@aacts2219]

Fantastic info. Wish I this info when I purchased my 1st home 20 yrs ago. Do you, by chance, know how often people end up actually having issues with title and had to use the title insurance. I've bought and sold homes over the yrs, especially in new suburb subdivisions ( the ones built with all the records available in digital form and where the home had only 1 owner with no liends, etc. & I was the 2nd owner). It seems like title insurance was a waste, especially when I sold that home in 1-3 yrs after leaving there.

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

I don't have statistics, but it may be worth talking with a title company about it!

Thank you for this… I want to buy a home next year. This was very informative 🙏🏽 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Glad it was helpful! Best of luck!

[@bammason9883]

So my closing cost is around $6000 and my cash to close is $4500. I would only pay the $4500 then when I close in a couple days??

[@laurabook9492]

I think your full closing cost is 10500. Let us know what you found out from your agent.

[@drewcoleman738]

Cash to close on the CD is what you bring to the table. The "closing costs" are what yhe fees are and the "other costs" are prepaid, inspections ect...

[@bammason9883]

@@drewcoleman738 I ended up paying $4300 overall. The lender and title company both give you an estimate on your cash to close and when you sign the papers on the closing date the actual cost ended up being less than we thought. This was a conventional loan with 5% down. It could be different if you did FHA. With the housing market in a bidding war you are better offer getting an offer accepted through a Conventional loan.

[@bammason9883]

Also, our bid was 5k less than the FHA offer and the seller wanted to take our offer instead. This actually happened twice, but we backed out of the first offer due to the fact the house has a poor inspection.

[@drewcoleman738]

@Bam Mason FHA is pretty conpetive with conventional on the selles side if you've got a PA letter. And the lender and title company have estimates for closing costs, but some are 0% tolerance, some 10% tolerance and some 100% tolerance. Always check which fees they are allowed to change and by how much. Even after close. If you bring up an out of tolerance charge, they have to change the CD (even after close) and it might mean money back to you.

[@tiana7780]

[@charleswagenseil5496]

Very helpful, thanks for sharing. If you plan on using funds from a non-retirement brokerage account for the down payment, will lenders accept the most recent brokerage statement to verify ability to make the down payment? Or will lenders require you to liquidate shares prior to getting pre-approved for a mortgage?

[@RobMonTV]

I believe he's mentioned that in instances like this, liquidation would be necessary.

[@linda27189]

Great video....you are like the best mortgage teacher ever lol. In this crazy seller's market have you noticed buyers wrapping the closing costs into the loan? Or do the sellers want all the extra money for themselves? Like with the example you gave 300k house...9k closing costs...offering 309k and asking the seller for 9k for closing costs.

[@WinTheHouseYouLove]

Around my area in Ohio yes!

[@drewcoleman738]

In Texas it isn't that way unless you up the offer price...and that is iffy

[@konkuringu]

If we have money divided up into different bank accounts, should we move down payment/closing costs all into just one? Or do we show bank statements for multiple banks? Thanks for these videos! They're very helpful as we begin to think about buying a home.

Credit Union non profit less money to close.

[@terri3486]

When doing an FHA loan can the mpi be rolled in the loan?

[@alexisrivers5806]

So do I get money back if the house was 200k but I offered extra 10k but in closing cost they pay 5k towards my closing

[@laurabook9492]

I may be wrong on this, but I don't think you'd get money back. If closing costs average purchase price, then is evans out. If the added 10,000 added to the original purchase was added, and the appraiser came in at the added amount included, then the value of your purchase has gone up. The seller pays the closing(,in my view the amount seller is paying for your closing is high), but will not devalue the appraisers value.
