around $3000 - $4000.

try to get the seller to pay it though.

I had the seller pay $2000 toward my closing, but I still had to bring $1600..

It would depend on several factors, if you are using a mortage broker or going straight to a bank. Plus your credit.

But a good rule of thumb is 2-4 percent of the purchase price.

Around 3% ancilary costs over and above the realtor commission if you are the seller.
Assuming there are no major repairs or other requirements of the sale.

If you are the buyer, expect around 2.5% of the sale price, unless you impound taxes and insurance at which point you will need to bring in more cash, even though those costs are called "recurring" and NOT really a cost of purchasing the home.

Ask your Realtor for a BUYER"S NET SHEET FOR YOUR DEAL> That is what he/she gets paid the big bucks for.

These will vary all over the place, depending on where you are. A few thousand dollars is a reasonable wild-a.s guess. If there is a new loan being placed on the property, the costs will be higher, as they will include points or nuisance charges to the lender as well as a lender's title policy.

I paid 3-5% when I bought my first two homes. Ask for the buyer to pay some of it and/or roll it into the price of the loan.

about 2-4% of price: $3000-3500. sometimes you can get the seller to absorb some of it by splitting the cost. if the seller really needs to sell (especially if you offered the full asking price) you hold a good hand

good luck at closing!

It would depend on whether you are the buyer or seller.

If you are buying, figure on about 3%.

We paid almost $6000 i believe. Our house was $147,500. You should have to pay at least $3000 though. Pretty damn expensive is all I know!

Around 3%, and depending on how many months of taxes and insurance they impound it could be more.

A lot people giving advice are also looking to give you a loan, if they are not local to you and you can’t get to them in person within 1 hour don’t fall for it. They say they are licensed in all 50 states, what does that mean? Which state do you have to look in first if something goes wrong? KEEP IT LOCAL, STAY SAFE.

Remember Buddha's advice:
"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense." You are the only "expert" you can trust: All brokers, and every other loan officer guru giving advice here with a .com or contact me at the end is "selling" you something. Don't buy "it."
