Many are conventional, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Florida to help lead you through the deal.

Sellers: As we hammer out your deal, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also push for reduced closing costs. And once we've come to an agreement, I'll fully clarify the closing costs so you are informed of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you're buying a home in Okaloosa County, you'll receive a "Good Faith Estimate" (GFE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's previous experience and is required to be within an acceptable range so you're not shocked when you arrive at the closing appointment. I'll be happy to look through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that appear to be out of the ordinary.
