If closing costs can make or break a sale, interested parties are often happy to pitch in. Interested party contributions (IPCs) are becoming more popular, so it’s a great time to brush up on the details.

What is an IPC?
IPCs, also called seller concessions, allow interested parties to cover a buyer’s fees and closing costs up to a certain amount.

Who can be an interested party?
The seller, builder, or affiliate can all offer IPCs. The chart below shows the percentages of allowable IPCs.
