Sellers: As we get through the details of your transaction, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll give a detailed list of the closing costs so you are aware of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: When buying a property in Dorchester County, you will be given 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 past experiences and is required to be within a suitable range so you're not astonished when you come to closing time. I'll be willing to go through the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates in question.
