FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

"I'm wondering about closing costs, what are they?"

Mortgage closing costs are the fees that are charged for processing and closing your loan application.

This includes fees for things like: title, recording, appraisal, pest inspection, attorney’s, surveying, and taxes.

Note that the cost will vary depending on your exact location.

There are two documents that lenders are required by law to give you: the Closing Disclosure and the Loan Estimate. They help you avoid surprises when closing; they outline the exact closing costs.

"How about real estate agents, do I really need one?"

At first, you may believe that you don’t need a real estate agent at all. But, as you become more involved with painfully difficult paperwork, you’ll likely begin to rethink this stance.

There are several reasons to get a real estate agent while house hunting, and the four main benefits are:

The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) database.
An advantaged real estate negotiator.
The right legal protection
Someone who can take care of all the paperwork.

Here's What Other Homeowners Like You Have To Say About Us

Purchasing or refinancing a home is such a personal and often stressful experience, things seem to come down to the last 30 days and when the process greatly affects you and your family, emotions can run high. In the age of online offers and refinancing with a click of the button I have been burned before. In Brian I have an individual on my financial team that I can trust completely and that is priceless.

Brian always made me feel at ease, was easy to communicate with and by the end of my first purchase with Brian I knew for a fact he had my best interest at heart. I have since done three transactions with him and I know he always fights to get me the best deal and protects my interests at all costs.

I was lucky in that Brian was a good friend of the family when we took on the process of purchasing a family home. Then I found out that I was even more lucky than I knew. Brian and his team will take care of you like their own family as they guide you through the process to closure.
