Charleston · Buying
What other upfront costs should I budget beyond the down payment?
Beyond the down payment, expect a home inspection, an appraisal fee, a state-and-county deed recording charge, a homeowners policy, and the closing attorney's fee South Carolina requires. Prepaid property tax and insurance escrow amounts can also add to what is due at the table. Brian Beatty walks every buyer through this full list early so nothing is a surprise on closing day.
