Closing Costs Clause Samples
The Closing Costs clause defines which party is responsible for paying the various fees and expenses associated with finalizing a transaction, such as a real estate sale. Typically, these costs may include title insurance, escrow fees, transfer taxes, recording fees, and attorney fees, and the clause will specify whether the buyer, seller, or both share these expenses. By clearly allocating financial responsibility for these costs, the clause helps prevent disputes and ensures both parties understand their obligations at closing.
