Many are universal, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Wisconsin to help lead you through the transaction.

Sellers: As we negotiate your sale, not only will I work to get the optimal sales price, but I'll also push for reduced closing costs. And once we've come to an agreement, I'll explain in detail the closing costs so you are aware of exactly what you're paying for.

Buyers: If you're buying a property in Milwaukee County, you will receive 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 appropriate 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.
