What the numbers mean
A citywide measure cannot price your particular house
Use each figure with its source, geography, and period. A median sale price summarizes completed sales; a modeled home-value index and for-sale inventory answer different questions. None tells you what one Anniston address will sell for.
Condition and repair needs can change what a listing asks you to do before photos, showings, inspections, or buyer financing. A tenant, access limits, or the time needed to coordinate repairs can also affect your choices. Compare those tasks and timing with a direct as-is sale before deciding.
Alabama selling cost
Alabama deed tax is paid when the deed is recorded
Alabama charges 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500. With no applicable mortgage-tax deduction, a $100,000 taxable value means $100 in deed tax; $100,200 means $100.50.
The taxable value may be reduced by a mortgage or vendor’s lien if Alabama mortgage tax has been paid on it; the closing attorney confirms the amount. To record the deed, you need proof of the actual price or value. Without that proof, the probate office uses the latest tax assessment, and penalties can apply. The deed tax and recording fees must be paid before recording.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Alabama's deed tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
What you may keep
Sale price and money left after costs are different numbers
Start with a realistic sale price or written offer, then account for your mortgage payoff, repairs or cleanout, selling costs, and bills while you wait. The net is what remains after those costs; the top-line price alone does not show what you keep.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Do Anniston market figures tell me what my house will sell for?
No. The figures describe the named market and period, not one address. Condition, repair needs, tenant occupancy and access, location, and timing can change the comparison for your house.
How is Alabama deed tax calculated?
Alabama charges 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500. With no applicable mortgage-tax deduction, $100,000 of taxable value means $100 in deed tax; $100,200 means $100.50. The taxable value may be reduced by a mortgage or vendor’s lien on which Alabama mortgage tax has been paid; the closing attorney confirms the amount.
What closing costs do you pay if I sell to you?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Alabama’s deed tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
What is the difference between sale price and what I keep?
The sale price is the top-line amount. What you keep is the amount after costs such as your mortgage payoff, repairs, selling costs, and bills while you wait. The calculator lets you compare your own planning assumptions.
