What Not to Overlook on a Final Walk-through
Common Closing Costs for Buyers
What to Keep From Your Closing
What to Keep From Your Closing  
  • The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) statement. This form, sometimes called a HUD 1 statement, itemizes all the costs associated with the closing. You'll need this for income tax purposes and when you sell the home.

  • The Truth in Lending Statement summarizes the terms of your mortgage loan.

  • The mortgage and the note (two pieces of paper) spell out the legal terms of your mortgage obligation and the agreed-upon repayment terms.

  • The deed transfers ownership of the property to you.

  • Affidavits swearing to various statements by either party. For example, the sellers will often sign an affidavit stating that they have not incurred any liens on the property.

  • Riders are amendments to the sales contract that affect your rights. For example, if you buy a condominium, you may have a rider outline the condo association's rules and restrictions.

  • Insurance policies provide a record and proof of your coverage.
