I found a house I like while browsing. I had no plans to buy but now I am thinking about it. I have good credit and job history but no savings really. So I would need to do a 100% financed loan; what would I then need to pay for out of pocket?
Thanks for helping...

Origination Fee (if charged), Appraisal, Underwriting, Attorney or Title Company (depending on your state), Title Insurance, Homewoners Insurance for the first year, Recording, possible Application or processing fee, Interim Interest, and any money to be placed into your Escrow account at closing (possible avoidance with a 80/20 loan)....plan on $4,500 on a 100% loan....you may also want to inquire about a 103% or 107% loan if your funds are low.

Depending on where you are and the seller's motivation, you may be able to have the seller pay at least a portion of your closing costs and, if the home you are interested in qualifies for the Federal Rural Housing Program (this doesn't necessarily mean it has to be what is normally considered a "rural" property, you can finance the closings costs as a part of the loan.
Various lenders may also have special programs available that allow you to finance the closing costs and lenders can price the loan so that they may contribute to your closing costs as well (although some of them try to keep that money).
You may, in most cases, use funds from a secured loan (think refinance the car or sell an asset upon which you can document the value) for funds to pay your closing costs.
The previous detailed answer about potential closing cost itemization was pretty dead on considering we all have no idea where you are.
Let me know if I can help.

It's a buyer's market. Get the seller to pay for everything. Most you'll have to pay for is the appraisal if you get the seller to agree to a 6% seller concession for closing costs and prepaids. Having a down payment is good, but there are loans out there for 100% of the purchase price. The rates are just not that favorable.

A 100% loan will only cover the purchase price of the house. Closing costs would not be covered by the loan so you would need to pay out of pocket for. Depending on the state you live in, you may be required to pay a mortgage tax, which will generally be the largest chunk of your closing costs. Items such as the title search, doc fees, attorney fees, etc. would also apply as well.
When we purchased our house in NY state, the closing costs were approximately $20,000 (and this was on a $280,000 house).

Every party is responsible for their own closing costs and financing costs. The buyer pays: the originiatio fee charged by the lender (roughly 1%), $300 - $450 appraisal fee, escrow fee (usuallu btw $300 - $450), recording fees, conveyance fees , 1-year property insurance, HMS warranty (usually $350 - $450) and other misc. charges... all this is roughly traslated to 3-5% of the purchase price (in addition to down payment monies) will be required by the buyer to close the deal....

You have to know the truth....
Do not buy anything on a 100% loan...they are killers....
Save at least 10% of the value of the loan...the banks would like 20%.....
You have closing costs, and you can find out approx. what they are with some research...
Get pre-approved from a bank to see how much you can afford and that is what you base the cost of the home you can purchase.....
Make sure you include taxes, and insurance yearly in your calculations...
good luck

Get two loans, not one 100% loan. Get one for 80% and one for 20%, this will avoid private mortgage insurance. If you would like to get pre-approved for a loan, send me an e-mail or message me on YIM! I am a Mortgage Planner from the California Bay Area but I can service anyone in the United States!

always go 100% financing, the rate is higher, but you can keep you assets liquid, so you have instant equity to put into the house, see? intstead of putting down 20%, just keep it, and use it for the house, and bills and stuff. plus you can get a seller's concession to cover closing costs, so you really can get a house with no money out of your pocket.

no probability as your credit could desire to and could be used as they now seem in any respect debtors low center score. So in case your credit say is 520 center and the co signer has a 720 center then your score is used for grade applications i'm a loan banker in TN

everything but the down payment. try to negotiate and have the seller pay your costs so you get into the property with literally no money.
