Sellers: As we get through the details of your deal, I'll not only 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 give a detailed list of the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you are purchasing real estate in Oklahoma County, you'll 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 prior experience and is required to be within an acceptable range so you're not shocked when you reach the closing table. I'll be glad to look over the GFE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that are uncertain.
