About Closing Costs

Every home sale involves fixed costs. Sellers and buyers customarily share these closing costs, as the sales contract specifies.

As the list below indicates, many of the closing costs result from getting your mortgage loan. At AAA Mortgage LLC, we have extensive experience in residential mortgage lending, so we can provide you with a comprehensive list of costs related to your mortgage in your "Loan Estimate".

Loan Estimate (Also known as the LE)

Buyers will get a "Loan Estimate" of closing costs at the time the loan application is submitted to the lender. The closing cost estimate comes out of the loan officer's past experience. Please note that while our LEs are very precise, we can't always estimate your costs to the penny. We handle buyers' questions about closing costs every day at AAA Mortgage LLC, so please feel free to ask if we can help answer your questions.

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