Buying a home in Detroit involves more than just your down payment — and the same goes for selling one. Closing costs, which typically range from 2% to 5% of the home’s price, cover lender fees, appraisals, title insurance, and prepaid items like homeowners insurance and taxes. Whether you’re buying your first home or selling to move on to your next chapter, understanding these costs helps you budget wisely and avoid surprises. At The Integrity Team, we walk you through both the buying and selling process, ensuring you know exactly what to expect at every step and helping you keep more of your hard-earned equity where it belongs — with you.
