Wondering how to get closing costs waived? Seller credits could be the answer! What are seller credits? In today's video, we’re getting into this MASSIVE costsaving move savvy homebuyers can make.
When buying a house or investment property, closing costs often set us back. These can be as low as a few thousand dollars or well into the fivefigure range. Add that to the down payment, and your costtoclose has dramatically increased. Thankfully, if you’re wondering how to get a seller to pay closing costs, we have an answer!
Seller credits can help reduce your costtoclose by thousands or tens of thousands, and it’s all paid for by the seller! How do you convince a seller to shell out the funds to cover YOUR closing costs? Licensed mortgage advisor Hannah Escher is back to show you what to do, plus walk through everything you need to know about seller credits and how much they can save you!
