Sellers: As we negotiate your sale, 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 come to an agreement, I'll fully clarify the closing costs so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you're buying a home in Saratoga County, you will get a "Loan Estimate" (LE) 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 an acceptable range so you're not shocked when you show up at the closing appointment. I'll be glad to go over the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
