SELLER CLOSING COSTS - WHAT TO EXPECT

4th-1.jpg
If you're selling your home, you are probably going to want to know exactly how much money you will receive in the end. In order to calculate your total profit, however, you will need to take into consideration the seller closing costs that you are expected to pay. Closing costs (also known as seller expenses), can amount to roughly 6% to 10% of the sale price.
Here are the most common closing costs for sellers:
  •  agent commission for listing and buying agents (typically between 5-7%)
  •  transfer tax (1-2%)
  •  title document preparation
  •  escrow and closing fees
  •  prorated property taxes
  •  hoa or condo fees
  •  credits toward closing costs
  •  attorneys fees
the good news is that the closing costs will simply be deducted from the proceeds from the sale of your home. So although you are spending the money, these are not upfront fees, so paying them should hurt a little less.
