What Makes Up Your Closing Costs
Closing costs fall into a few standard categories, no matter where you're buying.
Origination charges, appraisal, credit report, and underwriting fees cover the cost of processing and approving your loan.
Title insurance protects you and the lender against ownership disputes, while escrow fees cover the neutral third party that handles the transaction.
Local and state governments charge fees to officially record the deed and collect tax on the transfer of ownership.
Prepaid interest, property tax reserves, and insurance reserves fund your escrow account so future bills are covered on time.
Home inspections, pest inspections, and property surveys protect your investment and are usually paid outside of escrow.
Buyers can negotiate for the seller — or the lender, in exchange for a higher rate — to cover part of the closing costs, reducing cash needed at closing.
