If you're thinking about selling your home, you're probably wondering how much it will cost. While every sale is different, understanding the most common expenses can help you plan ahead.
Here are the main costs sellers should expect:
- Real estate commission – Compensation for your agent's marketing, negotiation, and guidance throughout the sale.
- Closing costs – These may include title fees, recording fees, and other costs associated with closing the transaction.
- Mortgage payoff – Any remaining balance on your home loan is paid from the sale proceeds.
- Repairs or buyer credits – Depending on the home's condition and the offer, you may choose to make repairs or provide a credit to the buyer.
- Moving expenses – Don't forget to budget for movers, packing supplies, and utility transfers.
