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?

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.
