In general, the closing costs amount to 1.5% to 2.0% of a home's purchase price.
This is a good guideline.
New homes may be a bit more involved.
In general the above guidelines generally hold, but be careful because the costs may be higher due to special circumstances or complexity.

family member or a friend
Other costs which can be involved in closing are:
- title insurance
- possible adjustments for property taxes, utilities and condo fees.
Again, they are generally included within the 1.5% to 2.0% figure but variance can
occur.
Talk to your lawyer to get all the details.
