Sellers: As we negotiate your sale, I'll not only work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also campaign for lower closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll explain in detail the closing costs so you are informed of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you are buying a property in Bexar 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 prior experience and is required to be within a reasonable range so you're not shocked when you reach the closing table. I'll be glad to look over the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that seem unusual.
