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

Buyers: If you are buying real estate in Los Angeles 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 a suitable range so you're not startled when you show up at closing time. I'll be happy to review the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
