Earnest Money

This real estate video discusses the topic of earnest money. After committing to the price the home buyer is willing to pay for the purchase of their new home in the contract, they are agreeing to the earnest money that will be put up in order to demonstrate to the home seller that they are a serious buyer and are committed to the transaction. Earnest money is typically 1% of the purchase price. The conditions of the earnest money are written into the contract and as long as everything goes according to plan and the buyer buys and the seller sells the earnest money will be applied to the buyers closing costs.

Closing Costs

This real estate video discusses the topic of closing costs. Closing costs are the financial commitment that each party has made that will be settled up at closing. Closing costs consist of the items that will be required to legally and ethically transfer ownership of the homes title. Sellers generally pay the sellers title policy and buyers tend to pay their loan related fees. Keep in mind that all closing costs are negotiable.
