May 05, 2021 18:15:16Can vendee loan payments be tied into mortgage payments.
May 09, 2020 09:32:33Hey, Jeanettia! Thank you for your question. I assume you are referring to closing costs for home loans. If that is the case, then there is a way you can reduce the amount of money you pay for closing through a seller concession. Through a sellers concession, the home seller is reducing the closing costs of buying the home, making it easier for the buyer. The funds will be added to the home’s sale price, therefore adding them to the mortgage payments. We do have an article about negotiating tips for lower your closing costs where we talk about the sellers concession and other ways of lowering your payments if you find it useful.
