    This is a hypothetical illustration for educational purposes only, using Florida average closing costs (2.3%) paid at closing, plus a $1,000 earnest money deposit, $695 appraisal, and $595 home inspection paid upfront prior to closing (which appear on the closing statement and may be reimbursable via seller credit when written into the purchase agreement), minus Hometown Heroes down payment assistance (5% of loan amount, $10,000–$35,000, subject to eligibility and fund availability) and its documentary stamp / intangible tax exemption (Fla. Stat. § 420.513(1)). Closing cost estimates do not include prepaid property tax escrows, homeowners insurance escrow deposits, or other prepaid items required by the lender at closing, which vary by closing date and insurance carrier. This does not represent a guarantee of eligibility, program funding, or final loan costs. Seller credits are subject to lender approval and purchase agreement terms. Consult your Nurse Income Specialist for figures specific to your situation. Not financial, tax, or legal advice.
