Oh , no ! The problem is that there isn't a clear answer, or not one a realtor wishes to give. I understand they may not want to be committed to a number that isn't exact, but a good ball park estimate would be appreciated. My daughter kept trying to get the realtor to give a good estimate but she was told that she wouldn't get an estimate sheet until the mortgage process. When she requested the buyer pay closing costs she was told that the realtor hasn't seen that in 21 years of being a realtor in The Villages. She thought worse case perhaps $4,000. Now this has us nervous, contract of sale just faxed - nothing mentioned in paragraph 5. I guess there are various contracts floating around the Villages.
