Home / What selling costs
What selling costs, line by line.
Before you list, you get a net sheet: your likely sale price, minus every cost below, so you know what you walk away with. No numbers on this page are quotes; yours depend on your sale.
My fee
Negotiable, and written into the listing agreement line by line before anything goes live. If a buyer's agent is paid, how that works is in writing too.
Washington real estate excise tax
A state tax on the sale, usually paid by the seller. It's graduated by price; I pull the current rate for your sale price.
Escrow and title
Escrow fees are often split with the buyer. The seller usually pays for the buyer's title insurance policy in Washington.
Your mortgage payoff
Whatever is left on your loan, plus interest to the payoff date.
Prep
Whatever we decide is worth doing from the walk-through list. Often cleaning, paint and light.
Credits or repairs
Only if you agree to them in negotiation. They show up in the offer table before you sign.

Start with your address. I'll call with a value range and send a net sheet after.
