What expenses are paid at the mortgage closing ?

A mortgage closing is a process of finalizing the purchase of property or making of a mortgage loan. For refinances and home equity lines of credit and loans, monies are disbursed after the 3 business day rescission period has expired. Generally, for home equity lines of credit, checks are generally sent to the borrower 8 to 10 business days after closing. Closing costs are costs payable by either seller or buyer at the time of settlement when the purchase of a property is finalized, or by borrower when a loan is refinanced. They include expenses such as points, taxes, title insurance, mortgage insurance, recording fees and attorney fees.
