    real estate settlement statement

    Are interest charges assessed to the homebuyer from the date of closing through the end of the month and reported on line 901 of the HUD-1 always accounted for in the year end 1098 mortgage interest statement from the lender?

    Not always - especially when the loan is sold 2 or 3 times in the year, often before the first payment is even due. If there's any significant money at stake it's always a good idea to to the calculation & double-check the numbers on the 1098 ('s).
