Other Nebraska Costs That Can Affect Nebraska Mortgage Calculations

Homeowner’s Insurance in Nebraska

Nebraska is the 13th most expensive state for homeowner’s insurance. Residents in the state can expect to pay about $1,259 annually for a decently priced premium. This is because the state is prone to thunderstorms, rain, flooding, hail, and snowstorms. Most standard policies will cover damage caused by these. However, an additional policy will be needed for flood insurance. This can be purchased through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The average cost of a flood insurance policy in Nebraska is $998 per year.

Closing Costs

Closing costs in Nebraska typically fall between 1.01% and 2.02% of the final home sales price. Since most homes sell between $100,000 and $200,000, homeowners can expect to pay $1,008 to $4,034 in closing costs after taxes. The average Nebraskan pays approximately $2,017 after taxes in closing costs.

Title Insurance

When buying a property, it is important to make a one-time purchase of title insurance. This protects the owner and mortgage lender against any future unforeseeable claims that might occur regarding the property’s title. These claims may be overlooked at the time of purchase and arise in the future. Your lender will usually require a policy that equals the amount of the loan. The nationwide average cost for title insurance is $1,000.

Home Inspection

Home inspections are an important part of the buying process to ensure the property is structurally sound. The average cost of a home inspection in Nebraska is $285 for a 2,000-square-foot home. However, final costs will vary greatly depending on location and square footage of the home.

Inspectors will assess the foundation, roof, basement, plumbing, electrical, grounds, fireplaces, and heating and cooling systems of a home for safety and code violations. At an additional cost, other tests including termites, pests, mold, and radon can be carried out.
