Has anyone ever gotten a mortgage from BoA? What was your experience? I’ve heard horror stories of hidden fees up to day of close and you can’t do much about it by then

Review your closing disclosure. Fees are locked at minimum 3 days before closing by law.

Boa is a large bank and it will inevitably be more expensive. They have far more people to make rich than a small bank

Go find the smallest private bank out there. Ask your friends if they can refer you to mortgage lenders

I have had mortgages through BofA. It was no different than any other financial institution. Always a bunch of fees, but should be disclosed in statements will before close.

Why BoA when there are so many options?

That’s pretty good. Is it a conventional loan? Or FHA?

We are renovating a condo and the previous owner had two Crane toilets (not sure how old, but functioning although seals are old according to our contractor). Back outlet flour mount ones are the only options for the building, and one toilet can cost $300-$500.
