Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Minnesota
mortgage law
I am selling my home and I am confused about where all the equity is going, the money owed is aprox, $150,000 the selling price is supposidly $240,000 ($90,000 equity) but the loan officer is saying that I will only be recieving $54,000 in return that includes a $7,000 closing fee that I am paying, Now my question is, how do I go about finding out if I am being taken for the remaining $36,000 without creating waves and making it delay the closing. Also what legal branch would look into these matters?

Call the title company doing the closing and have them provide a copy of the HUD-1 to you BEFORE the closing. Review it carefully. Take a lawyer with you to the closing. Don't sign anything you don't understand.
