How Much Does it Cost to Sell Your Home?

 

 

Seller closing costs

These are the typical costs to sell your home in Thurston County, WA. You don’t pay out-of-pocket for these costs, they are deducted from your net proceeds at closing.

  • Escrow fees, which are usually split 50/50 by buyer and seller
  • Title insurance policy
  • Property tax, which is prorated as of the date of closing
  • Mortgage payoff
  • Buyer closing costs that the seller has agreed to pay
  • HOA dues and transfer fees
  • Real estate commissions
  • Miscellaneous document and recording fees

Out-of-pocket costs

You may have some out-of-pocket costs as well, depending on the situation. Out-of-pocket costs usually include

  • Septic pumping and Time of Transfer from the county
  • Repairs that you have agreed to perform

Net Proceeds Estimate

Here is an example of a Net Proceeds Estimate. The Net Proceeds Estimate is an estimate of how much money you will walk away from the closing table with in the sale of a $500,000 home in Thurston County. It shows the estimated costs you can expect to pay.

This example does not include a mortgage amount. If there was a mortgage on the property, we would include the mortgage payoff. For example, if this property had a $250,000 outstanding mortgage balance, we would subtract that from $461,469.45 to arrive at an estimated net proceeds of $211,469.45.

  • Keep in mind that there is no set commission rate. Commission is negotiable at the time that the property is listed.
