Are there closing costs the seller must pay? The answer is usually yes. If the seller used a full service agent or a broker of some kind, anywhere from 4-7 percent of the sales price is considered a closing cost. The cost of the survey may be a closing cost depending on what state you are in. Release of your mortgage is another closing cost. For more detailed information, please see
