Closing Costs for Home Real Estate Transactions

There are certain standard costs related to closing the sale of a house. Sellers and buyers almost always split these closing costs, as the sales contract specifies.

As the list below indicates, many of the closing costs result from getting your mortgage. Since Wize Mortgage LLC is highly experienced with mortgages & closings, we are closing cost experts.

Loan Estimate (LE)

Soon after you submit your application, we will give you the "Loan Estimate" of your closing costs. The cost estimate comes out of our past experience. It's important to note that while our LEs are very precise, we can't always estimate your closing costs to the penny. We explain Loan Estimates with buyers almost every day, so we'd be glad to answer your questions about closing costs.

We've provided a general list of these costs below, but we'll give you a specific list of closing costs, with amounts, very soon after you complete your application. At Wize Mortgage LLC, we don't believe in surprises, so if your costs change, we'll be sure to let you know immediately.
