Blacksburg housing numbers, with source and period
Each row keeps the provider, reported geography, and data period together. The sources measure different things, so use them as context rather than as a price for one house.

A median sale price summarizes completed sales; Zillow's typical home value is a separate modeled measure, and its inventory count measures homes for sale. Keep each label with its own source, place, and period.
What the numbers mean
Use the market as a reference, not a price for your house
A median sale price is the midpoint of completed sales in the place and period named by its source. It does not price your particular house. Condition, needed repairs, size, access, tenant occupancy, sale terms, and timing can all affect your comparison.
Repairs can add both cost and preparation time. A tenant or lease can affect access and the sale schedule. If you wait, carrying costs continue. Compare those details for your address rather than relying on a town-wide figure.
Local selling costs
Virginia deed taxes belong in the comparison
Virginia imposes grantor tax when a deed is recorded. State law generally assigns it to the seller at 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value—about 0.1%. A written sale contract can shift who pays. State recordation tax and, where adopted, local recordation taxes are separate. The additional regional fees listed in Virginia law apply to specified Northern Virginia localities and Hampton Roads cities; they are not a general Blacksburg or Montgomery County charge. Exemptions and transaction details can change the amount, so the settlement agent confirms the applicable figures.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee.
Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate from that closing-cost promise.

What you may keep
The sale price is not the amount left after costs
Net proceeds are what remains after costs and payoff amounts for your situation. Compare a realistic listing result with an as-is sale after repairs, cleanout, listing commission if you list, carrying costs, and the applicable sale expenses.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Does a Blacksburg market median tell me what my house is worth?
No. A market median describes a group of sales or homes for the source and period shown. It does not price your particular house; condition, repairs, occupancy, access, sale terms, and timing can change the comparison.
How can repairs, tenants, and timing affect my comparison?
Repairs can add cost and preparation time. A tenant or lease can affect access and the sale schedule. If you wait, carrying costs continue. Compare those details for your property instead of applying a town-wide figure to it.
What Virginia deed taxes should I consider?
Virginia grantor tax is generally allocated to the seller by statute, though a written contract can shift who pays. State recordation tax and, where adopted, local recordation tax are separate; a settlement agent confirms which amounts apply to the transaction.
How is money left after a sale different from the sale price?
The sale price is the top-line amount. Net proceeds are what remains after the costs and payoff amounts for your situation. Use the Blacksburg calculator to compare editable assumptions for listing and an as-is sale.
