You can pay part of their closing costs. Buyers ask sellers to pay closing costs all the time.
You can pay closing costs, and with some programs even payoff their debts or collections...
However, as a party to the transaction, you may NOT pay or contribute to any part of the down payment.
Do not confuse "Closing Costs" with "Down Payment" they are not the same thing.
Thanks,
You buyer needs to contact his lender and see how much more in Closing Costs the seller can legally pay over and above the $4000 you are already paying. Doesn’t matter what it is labeled at closing as long as they bring in $1000 less in cash. So to be clear the Buyer needs their lender to calculate how much more you can pay on their behalf over and above the $4000 you have agreed too. There are all kinds of rules. You also need to know that just because you want to close earlier not all lenders involved will be able to do that.
Can't they wrap part of their closing cost into their loan aka say you raise your asking price by 1k to make up for the difference and if appraises out you are all good and they can take a bit of a APR raise from the lender to lower their closing costs as well or someting along those lines?
