About this term

The Closing Disclosure must be provided at least 3 days before closing. It details the final loan amount, interest rate, monthly payment, closing costs (broken down item-by-item), property taxes, insurance, HOA fees, and who pays each item.

Pro Tip

Request the Closing Disclosure as early as possible and review it carefully. Compare it to your initial Loan Estimate and ask your lender about any changes.

Example

The Closing Disclosure shows your $300,000 loan at 6.5%, $2,100 in closing costs paid by seller, and $1,896 monthly payment (principal and interest).
