Buying a home in Vermont? Don’t forget about closing costs!
Closing costs are the fees and expenses you pay at the end of a real estate transaction, on top of your down payment. In Vermont, buyers typically pay 2–4% of the purchase price in closing costs.
✨ What’s usually included:
• 📝 Attorney & title fees
• 🏦 Lender fees (application, underwriting, appraisal)
• 📋 Title insurance & title search
• 🏠 Home inspection & appraisal
• 💰 Prepaid items like property taxes & homeowners’ insurance
• 🌲 Vermont Property Transfer Tax (varies by property type & use)
📌 Good to know: Some costs are negotiable, and sellers may contribute depending on your contract.
Buying smart starts with understanding the numbers, no surprises at the closing table 🙌
