  • Property Tax – Although this is a common tax that home buyers are aware they have to pay once they own the home the reality is that you may need to pay property taxes when you buy a home because property taxes are also pro-rated.
  • Escrow – Depending on the escrow company you choose typical escrow fees can average about $2.00 per every thousand dollars.
  • Home Inspection Costs – This fee can cost up to $800 depending on the home inspection company you choose.
  • Title Search – When buying a home the purpose of doing a title search is to confirm that nobody else has liens on the title. This cost will be rolled into your overall closing costs.
  • Owners Policy Title Insurance – This is an important part of buying a home since this form of insurance will protect you if someone else chooses to claim ownership on your property.
