Sellers: As we negotiate your transaction, I'll not only work to get the highest sales price, but I'll also advocate for reduced closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are aware of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: When buying a house in Pierce County, you'll be given a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's prior experience and is required to be within an acceptable range so you're not astonished when you get to closing time. I'll be happy to look over the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates in question.
