Sellers: As we get through the details of your sale, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also push for lower closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you are purchasing a property in Watauga County, you'll receive a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's past experiences and is required to be within an appropriate range so you're not astonished when you get to closing time. I'll be willing to look at the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
