Expected closing costs

Many are conventional, but there are nuances to each, so you'll want a real estate expert in Guam to help show you through the process.

Sellers: As we get through the details of your transaction, not only will I work to get the highest sales price, but I'll also advocate for limited closing costs. And once we've arrived at an agreement, I'll describe in detail the closing costs so you are informed of exactly where your money is going.

Buyers: If you're buying a home in Guam County, you will get a "Loan Estimate" (LE) of closing costs within three days of submitting your loan application. The estimate is based on the loan officer's prior experience and is required to be within a tolerable range so you're not shocked when you reach closing time. I'll be willing to look through the LE with you, answering your questions and highlighting any estimates of concern.
