On average, closing costs make up two to five percent of the purchase price of a home. Two percent doesn't seem like a high number, until you remember that houses are pretty expensive. With the average home price at $152,000, that means you can expect to pay an extra $3,000 to $7,600. And that's just on average.
They might not have the extra money to pay buyer's closing costs, and without money to close, the transaction might not close at all. How Much Are Closing Costs? As a rule of thumb, closing costs to buy a home run about 2 to 4 percent of the purchase price, with the average around 3% of the sales price. Much depends on the points and origination fees a lender charges to make the loan, which used to be disclosed on the buyer's Good Faith Estimate, but today is now called a loan estimate. The total closing costs to purchase a $300,000 home could cost anywhere from approximately $6,000 to $12,000 or more. Typically, the funds cannot be borrowed because that could raise the buyer's ratios to a point where the buyer may no longer qualify for a loan.
