Your closing date can affect your upfront costs. 🤓
📆Let’s say you close early in the month, like June 4.
You may owe more prepaid interest because you’re covering more days before your first mortgage payment begins.
📆Now let’s say you close later in the month, like June 28.
You may owe less prepaid interest upfront because there are fewer days left in the month to cover.
That doesn’t mean one option is always better. 🤔
A later closing date can help lower your cash needed at closing, but you still need to think about things like seller timing, moving plans, lender deadlines, and month-end delays.
The point is this:
Don’t just pick a closing date because it sounds good.
Ask how that date affects your cash to close.
A few days can make a difference, and that difference can matter when you’re already budgeting for a down payment, closing costs, movers, furniture, and everything else that comes with buying a home. 🏡
