WE JUST CLOSED ON A NEW COURTYARD VILLA AND OUR TOTAL CLOSING COSTS WERE ONLY $4200.
I spoke with the sales agent at TV that we are working with. He said that they use to have the impact fees Etc. as extra ( I guess part of closing costs) on new construction but now they do not. The price quoted includes them. When we come down in April I will pin him down.
These two posts confirm what my sales agent very recently told me. It sounds like the high "non-mortgage" closing costs are based on old information.
