Virginia Closing Costs
Closing costs can be a bit confusing for pretty much anybody, whether you are a new homebuyer, an experienced one or a refinancing homeowner. They are basically expenses that come with the mortgage loan process. Since mortgage loans are offered by lenders, closing costs are also charged by and paid to lenders. But there are third party fees involved. Lender’s costs include loan origination fees, while third party costs are things like appraisal fees, survey fees, title insurance and taxes among others.

Average closing costs range from 0.9% up to around 5% of the total loan amount. The average amount in Virginia is $2,127 for a $200,000 mortgage. That is just slightly more than 1% of the loan amount and a bit higher than the national average of $1,847. Note that not all lenders have the same items on their closing costs so you can expect that the value can vary from one lender to another.
Also, the location of your house will play a role in determining how much you will pay. Of course appraisers, surveyors and other third parties charge differently for different areas.
