Samantha Stoely bought her house in Canton for al lot less than the seller had originally hoped to get, but the good deal didn't end with the $243,000 price. They covered most of her closing costs too - a $10,000 incentive.

I suppose its a bit like builders in this country offering "£10,000 cash back" or "Stamp duty paid".
