This is great information that consumers need to get wise to. It is interesting that consumers have little or no information at all into closing costs - which are bloody expensive in some areas.
You think that you have a home and loan you can afford, then they whack you with thousands of dollars in closing costs.
The only site I have seen that estimates closing costs is closing.com - has anyone else seen another one?

I'm surprised Delaware isn't mentioned.
