Hey this is Chris the mortgage pro. People ask me about closing costs, you
[10]
know closing costs are different from the down payment. Certain programs have a
[15]
requirement that you put a certain percentage down. Now, these are different,
[19]
they are fees such as we have appraisal we have a credit report
[25]
we have processing we have underwriting these these fees the standard things but
[31]
then we have escrow fees now the escrow company gets paid certain fees and some
[36]
of them might be a dock drawing fee they might have a printing fee to print the
[42]
documents there's gonna be a notary fee they're gonna have a loan tie-in fee if
[47]
there's a loan tied in with the transaction they're going to add a
[49]
couple of hundred dollars on we also have title they have numerous fees
[54]
there's recording fees to record the loan with the county so that it's your
[59]
house and we guarantee it so all these fees together they can add
[64]
up to quite a sum of money now on top of the fees there are other costs what are
[69]
they well depends on what month of the year depends on how many months taxes we
[76]
need to get so that we put them in together in an impound account so your
[80]
payment you make one payment includes your taxes and your insurance when we
[84]
start the loan basically you're gonna pay 1 years and 3 months
[88]
homeowners insurance up front we're also gonna pay you know if we're in April
[94]
we're gonna put three months taxes if we're in September it's gonna be nine
[99]
months taxes so it's something that's out of our control but it's something
[103]
that we have to come up with the money for and depending on the loan amount
[106]
we'll also determine what are the fees from the title and the escrow company if
[112]
you're paying points sometimes you pay points to buy the rate down to get a
[117]
lower interest rate or sometimes you have a low FICO score and we have to
[121]
charge points those are also dependent on what is the size of the loan so very
[127]
common $300,000 loan $8,000 $7,000 could be nine thousand dollars depending on
[134]
the time of year and how do we pay for those well this
[138]
three way is usually that they could be paid for
[141]
number one is you pay most people say I don't really want to pay it well that's
[146]
the reality you can pay it or we can ask the seller to pay it or pay some very
[152]
often we'll ask the seller to pay $8,000 in closing costs and the sellers going
[157]
to come back and say I don't not paying 8000 but I'll help you out I'll pay 4000
[161]
or I'll pay 2,000 now in a very competitive market like today when you
[166]
make an offer on a house we really don't want to ask for closing costs because
[171]
what are they going to do which offer they gonna accept that if you're
[175]
offering 300 thousand somebody else is offering 300 thousand but you're asking
[179]
for closing costs they gonna get less so like anybody else they want the most
[184]
money for their house so when you buy you got to consider that now the third
[189]
way to pay closing costs is if you have credit is reasonably good we can raise
[194]
the interest rate up and by doing that we get what's called a lender credit
[199]
example if I've raised on an FHA loan approximately a half percent on the
[204]
interest rate I can usually get about one and a half percent of the loan
[207]
amount so on a $300,000 loan I've raised the interest rate a half percent I have
[212]
$4,500 to lower your closing costs with so sometimes you pay some the seller
[219]
pays some and we raise the rate a little bit and we get that combination it could
[224]
be any combination of the three one two or three but that's what closing costs
[228]
are now there's a couple of closing costs that are paid upfront and that is
[233]
an appraisal the appraisal is paid it depends on what type of loan whether
[238]
it's a VA loan FHA loan or conventional loan what type of appraisal is required
[243]
so the the fees can change just a little bit within fifty to a hundred dollars
[248]
the other fees we do not collect upfront for credit report fees and those type of
[254]
things but sometimes we do have fees for a VA loan we have to have a termite
[259]
report but the good news about you vet if you're a vet you're not allowed to
[264]
pay that so we cover that for you too so be prepared you
[268]
I have to put a little deposit down with your realtor talk to them about that and
[272]
the appraisal upfront the rest we usually work it out as we go this is
