What are the seller's costs at closing?

  1. Home inspection, credit report for the lender, and hazard insurance

  2. Loan origination fee and appraisal fee

  3. Unpaid balance on the mortgage, liens, and broker's commission

  4. Title search, title insurance, and portion of taxes

The correct answer is: Unpaid balance on the mortgage, liens, and broker's commission

Seller's costs at closing typically include any unpaid balance on the mortgage, liens, and the broker's commission. While options A, B, and D may also be fees that the seller pays during closing, they are not considered "costs" as they are typically paid to third parties such as the home inspector, lender, or insurance provider. Option C highlights costs that are directly related to the seller's ownership of the property, making it the proper choice for this question.
