Five Costs First-Time Buyers Forget
You saved for the down payment. Here are five costs that surprise almost every first-time buyer.
First, closing costs. Lender fees, title and taxes add up, and they are due on closing day.
Second, the inspection and appraisal. You pay for both before the house is yours.
Third, moving itself. Trucks, boxes and time off work are not free.
Fourth, the first repairs. Something always breaks in the first year.
And fifth, filling the space. Save this, and ask your agent for real numbers in your area.
