Who pays which charge depends on your contract and funding.
| Compare | Ask for | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Lender costs | Loan Estimate for your exact financing scenario | Rate and loan structure change cash to close |
| Title and recording | Written estimate from closing agent | Allocation is negotiated and contract-specific |
| Condo charges | Association approval, estoppel and assessment documents | One-time association charges may be material |
Make the comparison specific.

Ask for the most recent association documents, confirm the unit’s legal details and use independent professionals where legal, tax, insurance or financing questions affect your purchase.
