Sellers: As we get through the details of your sale, I'll not only work to get the very best sales price, but I'll also advocate for reduced closing costs. And once we've reached an agreement, I'll fully clarify the closing costs so you are informed of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: When purchasing real estate in Desoto County, you'll be given a "Loan Estimate" (LE) 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 a suitable range so you're not surprised when you show up at the closing appointment. I'll be happy to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates that appear to be out of the ordinary.
