What are closing costs when selling a Show Low home?

Typical seller closing costs include real estate commission (5-6% of sale price), title insurance and escrow fees ($1,000-$2,000), minimal transfer taxes, HOA transfer fees if applicable, prorated property taxes, any agreed-upon repairs or buyer credits, and payoff of existing mortgage(s).

Should I make repairs before selling my Show Low home?

High ROI improvements include fresh neutral paint, updated fixtures and lighting, new carpet or refinished floors, enhanced curb appeal, and modern bathroom updates. Rick provides a pre-listing consultation to identify improvements that maximize your sale price without over-investing. Some homes sell best 'as-is' while others benefit from strategic updates.
