Question:
“I’m going to be a first time homebuyer and want to learn as much as I can. I’ve heard the seller has to pay for the Realtor fee as well as termites and a few other things. Is that correct?”
Answer:
Not exactly.
All costs are technically negotiable, so the seller is not required to pay for anything.
However, local custom generally determines who pays for what. The seller pays the Realtor fee 99% of the time and termites about 75% of the time.
