This will vary quite a bit depending on where you're buying. Our county charges sellers a massive 1% transfer tax. NY title costs are fixed, you can shop for different companies, but they're required by law to charge the same amount. As it turns out this makes title insurance MORE expensive, not less, because the state fixes the costs by figuring out what the least efficient provider requires to not lose money (including an "allowed profit" calculation). If you're running an efficient business, you just end up making more money, not passing it on to the consumer. Yay for government intervention?
I paid
$450 - processing fees
$400 - apprasial
$39 - credit report
$1278 title (!) and this is just the lender's title fee, I didn't buy owner's title insurance.
