Sellers: As we negotiate your deal, not only will I work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also advocate for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll fully explain the closing costs so you know exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you're purchasing a home in Cook County, you will 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 startled when you come to the closing appointment. I'll be glad to look at the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates in question.
