  1. Ask the lender for a Fee Details breakdown so you can see where the money is going.

  2. Are you sure that you are not counting the Mortgage Recording Tax in that figure? Without knowing the purchase price it’s impossible to tell what is reasonable or not.
    The new GFE’s (as of 2010) are horrible and lump certain fees together. Those idiots in Washington DC think they are helping people but they are just making things much more confusing.

  3. On a purchase of 1.8mil $9323 in title charges closing costs sounds about right. The bulk of the sum collected by the title company is usually the cost of insuring the title. Title insurance is required if you are financing the deal and smart to pay anyway if you are paying cash.
