What the numbers mean for your house
The measures above describe Bay City market activity or a modeled value for the source and period shown. Neither one prices your particular house. Size, condition, access, occupancy, repairs, and sale terms can change the comparison.
Repair work can add cost or preparation time if you list. A tenant-occupied house may have different access and coordination needs than a vacant one. Include the time you expect to hold the property when comparing a direct sale with listing, repairs, or waiting.
Selling costs to keep separate
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.
That does not include your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. Those amounts are separate and can affect what remains after the sale.
What you may keep after the sale
The sale price is not the same as the money left after costs. Compare a realistic price or written offer with your payoff, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while you own the house.
Use the calculator to change the assumptions for your house and compare what you may keep from different sale paths. A Bay City market measure cannot supply your payoff, repair budget, or holding costs.

Questions about the Bay City market report
Do Bay City market numbers tell me what my house is worth?
No. The measures describe Bay City market activity or a modeled value for the periods shown; they do not price your address. Condition, repairs, access, tenant occupancy, and timing can change the comparison for your house.
Do you buy Bay City houses as-is?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Which closing costs do you pay?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
What should I subtract to see what I may keep?
Start with the sale price or written offer, then account for your mortgage payoff, liens or back taxes, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and bills while you own the house. The calculator lets you compare assumptions for different sale paths.
