Pre-Approval

Pre-Approval is the first step in a successful real estate transaction. That will set the base line for your price range, and give sellers the piece of mind that you are a serious buyer with the means to close the sale.

Finance options can be confusing and overwhelming. The most common loan options are FHA (3.5% down), Conventional (5% to 20% down), and VHA funding (available to retired or active military only).

If you have not already obtain a pre-approval from the lender of your choice, we would be happy to refer you to some of the great local lenders that we work with.

Escrow and Closing Costs

Escrow and Closing Costs will vary depending on the purchase price of your transaction. What is escrow? This is an account held by a disinterested third party where all deposits are made concerning a real estate transaction. Who holds the escrow varies by region. In Lee County, it is typically held by the title company that will also performing the closing. Part of any real estate contract are deposits; typically an initial deposit within 3 days of an executed contract (starting at $1,000 and going up depending on purchase price & seller requirements) and then a final deposit of your money down (depending on your loan, anywhere from 3.5% to 20%+). These funds are held in escrow until the closing occurs and then the title company disburses the funds accordingly.

  • Prorated Property Taxes & HOA dues (as applicable)
  • Loan Origination Fees
  • Pre-Paid Interest, Property Taxes & Insurance
