About Milford and the local Real Estate Market Milford has an extremely active housing market at present, as new residents are attracted by the city’s plentiful job prospects, excellent school system, plentiful shopping centers, beautiful beaches, boat harbor, central location, train station and very close proximity to New York City. There is a good range of homes to choose from, from Colonial and Victorian buildings to modern cottages, capes, ranch houses, apartments and condominiums. Prices vary greatly from the executive level to the extremely affordable. One can find both mansions and starter homes in Milford. Milford has several excellent planned communities and long term care facilities within the city limits. Several newer apartments and developments offer fantastic harbor views. Many beach houses are cute historic cottages. These are popular both as second summer get away homes and as places to live year round.  Which neighborhoods offer the best values? It's my job to help! Ask me any question, or request my FREE relocation package of information on Milford, New Haven and West Haven. There's no obligation, and I promise to respond quickly...

Closing or Settlement >The Settlement
The final stage of a home sale transaction is the time to tie up all the loose ends. The buyer and seller will sign the settlement sheet at the closing, detailing all of the charges that each party has incurred during the sale of the house. It is crucial to go over the sheet for accuracy and to make sure that you understand everything on it before you complete the transaction.
When a contract is negotiated, each side agrees how to divide the loan fees (or points), as well as the other closing charges, such as state or local taxes or escrow fees. Your real estate agent can go over the settlement sheet and help you compare it with your purchase agreement. The seller's charges usually include the brokerage fee, the mortgage payoff, and any charges involved in clearing the title, as well as pro-rated property taxes, payments for termite treatment and escrow for repairs that could not be completed by closing. The buyer's costs include charges for the loan and title searches, insurance and any other legal fees. A good closing officer will go over the settlement sheet line by line, explaining each item and correcting any misplaced charges.
