North Carolina specifics
Buyers here encounter terms that don't exist in every state. A due diligence fee is paid to the seller for the right to investigate and terminate during the due diligence period, and earnest money is held in trust and credited at closing. Closings are handled by an attorney. I walk you through each one in plain language. Read the full guide: How Buying a Home in North Carolina Works.

It is an amount paid directly to the seller for the right to inspect and investigate the property during the due diligence period. It is typically credited to you at closing if the sale closes. The amount is negotiated in your offer.
What is earnest money?
Earnest money is a deposit held in trust to show you are serious. It is credited to you at closing. Its handling is spelled out in the contract.
Who handles closing in North Carolina?

How much do I need for a down payment?
It depends on the loan program. Some loans require as little as a few percent down while others require more. A lender can tell you exactly what fits your situation. You are free to choose any lender, and I am glad to share a few names to compare with no obligation.
