Best Answer

No, prior to the closing, the attorney or title company should have all the information in regards to all costs in buying the home. At close, everyone will be given a HUD/Settlement Statement--the left side will list all costs pertaining to the buyer and on the left all costs pertaining to the seller. If the seller is paying some or all your closing costs the title company/attorney will show your costs on the seller side. In other words, you will get credit at the close. Depending on the state in which you live and the type of loan you are doing, the seller is limited to a certain amount that they can pay. Normally you will not be reinmbursed by the seller after close if the seller offered to pay more than they were allowed.

What is the purpose of a home seller's concession?

Seller-paid concessions, when used properly, can mean the difference between closing a home sale and losing one. A concession is anything of value added to the transaction by the seller, builder, developer, salesperson or any interested party. A concession may also include any closing costs that would normally be paid by the buyer or cash given to the buyer to lower non-housing debts. Funds received from a relative to assist with a home purchase, or cash contributed from an employer as part of a corporate transfer are not considered seller concessions.

What is a seller concession?

It works like this: suppose you agree on the price of the house at, say, $200,000. You then ask the seller for a 3% seller concession. What this means is that you add 3% to the price of the house. That's right, you're now going to pay $206,000 for that house -- but the seller is going to give you that $6,000 back when the sale takes place. You're going to use that money to cover all of your closing costs. It is also a term that can be used for a selling venue at a fairgrounds, amusement park, etc. (concession stand)

The closest you can get is $339,200 for a purchase price, less 3% ($10176) will leave you $329,024.00 Generally the buyer is entitled "up to" a certain percentage and not the exact percentage because they would all go directly to closing costs and not allow the borrower cash out.


In a sellers concession how does it hurt the seller?

A seller's concession is something the seller gives or gives up in order to make the sale. Therefore the seller's profit is reduced. However, seller's concessions are often used as a selling tool in a buyer's market. Many first time buyers need some seller's concessions in order to purchase the property. It depends on how much you want to sell. If you can afford to hold on to the property and do not need a sale at present, you can wait until the seller's market improves.
