Trying
to determine how much money you will need for, or will receive from,
a real estate transaction can be a daunting task but you need to
establish the bottom line, in order to compare apples to apples.
The document that will contain all the fees and charges relating
to your settlement will be the Settlement Statement, or HUD-1. A
blank
settlement statement and a detailed, line-by-line
explanation are available on the official FDIC
Web site.
|
| Ordinarily,
a settlement company’s charges will appear on lines 1100 through
1113 of the HUD-1, and possibly on lines 1303 through 1305. FGT&E
