A Little About the Pensacola Area:
Pensacola is located in Florida’s Western Panhandle and offers a variety of activities in and out of the water to residents. With more than 50 miles of shoreline along the Gulf of Mexico, Pensacola provides public water access – including boat ramps and beaches – for boating, swimming, fishing, and other water sports. Other recreational opportunities are available at many of the area’s parks, recreation centers, and golf courses. Check out our "Things to Do" page for more details about the local activites and a calendar of events.
Pensacola enjoys a unique history that includes being part of five different nations – Spain, France, Great Britain, The Confederate States of America, and The United States of America. Residents celebrate the city’s founding with The Fiesta of Five Flags, an annual festival event held in the summer. Pensacola also boasts the Seville Historic District, one of the state’s oldest intact neighborhoods, and Old Christ Church, Florida’s oldest church built in 1832.
Downtown Pensacola also has a lot to offer residents and visitors alike. Numerous small shops are located in this historic area as well as assorted cafes, restaurants and galleries as well as antique stores and flea markets. University of West Florida, chosen by US News magazine as one of the nation’s best colleges and universities, is only one of the many excellent schools in the area.

Closing or Settlement >The Good Faith Estimate
When you buy a home, you will pay "closing costs" in addition to the down payment. These costs include the "points" you pay on your mortgage loan, title and hazard insurance, the title search, legal fees, and other charges imposed by the lender. These charges vary by state and county, but they usually represent a considerable amount of money.
Your real estate agent can tell you about the closing costs in your area. Ask your agent for some general figures when you begin your search for a new home, and use this information as a guideline. When you apply for your loan, the lender is required to provide you with a "good faith" estimate of the closing costs. The lender's good faith estimate is usually close to the actual amount, since the sales contract will have the price and terms of your new home spelled out. As the closing approaches, your real estate agent will give you a final figure for the check that you will bring to the closing table.
