Can Seller Pay Closing Costs For Buyer? When buying a home in Texas, many home buyers are interested in purchasing with little to no cash to close. Although a seller is allowed to pay for the buyer's closing costs, there are limits to how much a seller can contribute, as well as what those funds can be used for. For example, a seller can not pay anything towards a buyers down payment. But a seller can pay for the title policy, prepaid taxes, prepaid interest, prepaid insurance, buying down interest rate or pmi, and any other lender or title fees. Though it's worded as the seller paying these costs for the buyer, in reality, the seller is just allowing the buyer to finance their closing costs into the loan rather than paying for them out of pocket. One common way buyers are taking advantage of these seller concessions is by asking the seller to contribute to buying down the buyers interest rate. This makes the monthly payment much more affordable for the buyer, without the buyer having to come up with any extra cash out of pocket. Make sure to watch this video if you are considering buying a home, and make sure you fully understand what it means, and in what cases it would be to your benefit to have the seller pay your closing costs 🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻 📲 Call / Text me: 214-957-2001 💻 Email: michael@bearcoastdallas.com 🤝 Set an appointment with me here: bit.ly/40HvRrQ 🎥 Subscribe here: bit.ly/3JPOiUB 🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺 See my previous video here: https://youtu.be/m8h9H4fZvew Looking to buy a home in Dallas?

What Part Of Dallas is Good To Raise A Family? Is Dallas A Good City To Raise Kids? My wife and I found ourselves asking this very question just a few years ago as we were expecting our first child. In this video we look at the top 5 best cities and areas to raise kids in the Dallas Ft Worth area. You may be surprised to know that in the #1 top rated area to raise kids you can get a nice home for around $350k! And 3 of the top 5 areas for raising a family in the DFW area are all in one area of Richardson Texas. Canyon Creek, Greenwood Hills, Arapaho Heights, and the Reservation are all top rated areas to raise kids according to niche.com. Southlake and Coppell take the remaining 2 spots on the top 5 best areas to raise kids list, but the cost of living and real estate in both of these cities is quite a bit more expensive than Richardson. If you're considering a move to any of these areas, give me a call! 📲 Call / Text me: 214-957-2001 💻 Email: michael@bearcoastdallas.com 🤝 Set an appointment with me here: bit.ly/40HvRrQ 🎥 Subscribe here: bit.ly/3JPOiUB See my previous video here: Looking to buy a home in Dallas?
