Is there a fee called "Cash Closing Fee". In my transaction as a seller i am paying for Title insurance $1500, Transfer tax $400, Village Stamp papers $800. And in addition, there is a fee called Cash Closing fee of $625. This is sellers half and the other half is expected from the Buyer.
Does anyone know if this is a genuine charge or am i being taken for a ride.
You're most likely being ripped off and the cash buyer is definitely being ripped off unless there are details you haven't told us.
I purchased this home and others with cash,be careful what you check or what is checked in contract.
I have always said I will only pay closing costs dictated by state law.

That sounds like a genuinely inflated fee. What does your lawyer or real estate agent have to say about it? (That's a rhetorical question--I most likely already know the answer.)

usually the lender does, but since there is no lender the only fee the title company should be charging for themselves is a closing fee which is this: Closing Fee or Escrow Fee (generally calculated a $2.00 per thousand of purchase price plus $250) - This is paid to the title company, escrow company or attorney for conducting the closing.
did you sell a mansion?
