𝐋𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐬 Ever looked at a Loan Estimate and wondered: “What part of this does my loan officer actually control?” Here's the real deal: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥: → Origination fees (in this case, $0! ) As your loan pro, I fight to keep this cost LOW (or eliminate it when I can). 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧’𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥: → Appraisal, credit report, flood cert fees → Title company and attorney charges → Homeowner’s insurance → Taxes, prepaid interest, escrow set-up → Pretty much all the "other costs" 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: You deserve transparency. Many of these numbers come from third parties, NOT the lender—but they still end up on your estimate. That’s why working with a loan officer who will break it down for you (like me ) makes all the difference. DM me if you want a second set of eyes on your Loan Estimate
