Just learned how much closing costs actually are in my city

I was looking at a house in Charlotte listed for $325,000 and my lender sent me a worksheet. The estimated closing costs were over $12,000, not even counting the down payment. I thought it was maybe a few thousand, tops. Has anyone else been blindsided by this, and did you find any ways to lower those fees?
