Dear Clients, Friends and Fellow Associates~

We asked Cary Griffin of McNair Law Firm to give us a better understanding of closing costs as a buyer, seller or fellow associate.  Cary also put together a reference guide for the costs associated with each community.  Please keep in mind that the transfer fees can be negotiated by the buyer, the seller or split equally.  The closing costs in the links below are all based on a $100,000 average.  If you have a more expensive property, you can  remove the constants and use a multiplier to determine an approximation to your closing costs.  Here is a quick summary:

• Home Closing Costs on Hilton Head
• Villa Closing Costs on Hilton Head
• Lot Closing Costs on Hilton Head Island

*Please note loan fees and prepaid items will add additional closing costs.       

If you have any questions as you review these closing documents, please feel free to contact Cary Griffin at CGriffin@MCNAIR.NET .  Cary has also provided a handy list of transfer fees and plantation dues below.  Simply click on the underlined link for a readable (and printable) list of these fees:
