Closing costs are the taxes and fees associated with completing your home purchase.  Buyers can expect for them to range anywhere from 2-6% of the purchase price of the home.  

Here are some closing costs most buyers can expect to anticipate:

• Loan origination
• Home inspection fees
• Escrow deposit
• Attorney fees
• Private mortgage insurance
• Taxes on home loan amount
• Document recording fees on the deed and mortgage
• Mortgage points

Buyers and sellers typically split the closing costs.  A great buyers agent will help you negotiate these costs with the seller to offset as much of the costs as possible.
