Recurring vs Nonrecurring Closing Costs

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Keystone Realty RS294813

I just called a realtor about a certain foreclosure to ask about the banks habits with seller paid closing costs.  He mentioned that the bank would only pay non-recurring costs. 

I figured most people who aren't realtors have no idea what the different is so I'll clear this up for everyone.

Recurring Closing Costs - Are costs associated with buying a house that happen every month.

-Taxes

-Interest

-Property Taxes

-Insurance

-Home Owner Association Dues

Nonrecurring Closing Costs - Are costs that happen only once.

-Appraisal

-Notary Fee

-Title Insurance Policy

-Any anything else that is only required once to complete a transaction

Now I have learned two things today.  But I forgot what the first one was.

Don't see how the reaccuring closing costs are closing costs, but banks like definition I guess.

Ross - I think they are referrencing things like taxes due at settlement, interest to the end of the month, and so forth.
