Sellers: As we hammer out your transaction, I'll not only work to get the highest sales price, but I'll also push for reduced closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are informed of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you're buying real estate in Washington County, you will receive a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's past experiences and is required to be within a reasonable range so you're not astonished when you reach the closing appointment. I'll be happy to look over the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem off.
