At Griffin & Jordan, we are pleased to help you with your title and closing. In general, there are two types of closing transactions – financed transfers and cash sales with no lender involved. As a part of your financed transfer, your lender will provide you with estimated closing costs. Both types of transactions have similar fees associated with them. Each client’s case is unique and there may be issues that require more than the usual amount of legal work; as a result, the fee for those cases would be higher. The fees outlined here apply to typical real estate transactions. These fees include:
