The combination of affordable prices and exceptionally low interest rates make this a great time to buy a home for those who qualify. When budgeting for your home purchase, you'll want to take into account the items that make up what are known as closing costs. They include, but are not limited to, items such as:
- the appraisal
- the inspection
- homeowner's insurance
- underwriting
- title insurance
- transfer taxes
- county recording fees
Closing costs can vary from state to state and among local municipalities within the state. The following chart references the most common closing costs for home purchases in the city of Chicago.
***Please note -- the costs on the following chart are for general information purposes only. Always consult your loan officer and attorney for the most current information, and for details about the closing costs specific to your transaction.
