Purchase with Seller Paying Closing Costs

A common purchase strategy of buyer agreeing to pay a higher dollar amount than normally would be negotiated (e.g. full asking price) in exchange for seller agreeing to pay closing costs. Net effect is that buyer does not have to pay out-pocket for their closing costs and seller nets same amount as if they would have sold for the lower price they realistically expected to sell home for.

NOTE: In order for the loan to be approved by the mortgage lender, the house will need to appraise for no less than the total contracted purchase price (which includes the added dollar value for the buyer’s closing costs).
