Our vendors
We keep two or three we trust for this, and we don't publish their names — they get our clients, not cold calls. Ask for an introduction and we'll make it.
What would you do with an extra $25,000 at closing?
Lower your monthly payment. Cover your closing costs. Keep more cash in the bank. With SelfCloze, the fee the seller pays your agent mostly comes back to you. You pay $0 up front, and if you don't buy, you pay nothing.
