What are Closing Costs?

Every home sale incurs certain costs. Sellers and buyers almost always share these costs, as the sales contract specifies.

Many of the closing costs associated with buying a house are associated with getting the loan. At Bright Vision Mortgage, we have extensive experience in mortgage lending, so we can provide you with a comprehensive report on closing costs related to your mortgage in your "Loan Estimate".

Loan Estimate (Also known as the LE)

Soon after you submit your application, we will provide you with the "Loan Estimate" of your closing costs. The cost estimate is based on our past experience. Please note that while our LEs are very precise, we can't always estimate costs to the penny. We will be glad to review the "Loan Estimate," answering questions and highlighting costs that sometimes vary a little bit at the closing table.

Below is a fairly generic list of closing costs. We will always provide a specific list of your closing costs when we give you a Loan Estimate.
