Cash Sale & Pricing

What Is Closing Costs?

Closing costs are the fees and charges required to finalize a real estate transaction — including title work, transfer taxes, and recording fees. With most cash home buyers, the buyer pays these so the seller keeps the full agreed price.

Closing costs cover the administrative and legal expenses of transferring ownership: title search and title insurance, escrow or settlement fees, deed recording fees, and any applicable transfer or documentary stamp taxes.

In a traditional sale, sellers often pay 1-3% of the sale price in closing costs on top of agent commissions. Most reputable cash buyers, including Diamond Home Buyers, pay all closing costs — meaning the number on your offer is the number you actually walk away with.

Always confirm in writing who pays closing costs before you sign. A clear purchase agreement spells this out.
