Buyers - Plan for Misc. Expenses
Everything is negotiable in a contract to purchase a property. However, there are some costs a buyer often pays that should be expected in a transaction. These are items beyond the down-payment and mortgage fees. Prices are an average range.
Home Inspection $325-375
Termite Inspection $80-100
Survey $500-600
Home Warranty $360-400
Title Company Fees (documentation and filing fees) $350
Surprises are the last thing you want as a buyer. Plan to have a little extra in addition to your down payment and mortgage associated items to be well prepared.
