What the numbers mean
The same market figure can mean different things for different houses
Needed repairs and cleanup can change what you would net from a listing or direct sale. Whether tenants live in the house can affect access and timing, and the time you can wait affects the bills you carry. A city-wide figure cannot account for those details.
Compare the choices for your home using its condition and costs—not a town-wide measure as if it were an offer for your address.
Local selling costs
Include West Virginia's transfer excise taxes in the closing figures
West Virginia charges a real estate transfer excise tax of $1.10 for each $500 of value, plus an additional county excise tax of 55 cents for each $500. A county commission may raise the additional tax to as much as $1.65 per $500. Each $500 or fraction counts, and taxable value includes liens the buyer takes over.
The county clerk also collects a $20 Affordable Housing Fund fee before recording. State law generally assigns the excise tax to the seller unless the buyer accepts the deed without the tax paid.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the West Virginia real estate transfer excise tax and the additional county excise 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
Compare a realistic sale price or written offer with repairs and cleanout, mortgage payoff, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and bills you carry while waiting. The calculator lets you compare a listing with an as-is sale using your own assumptions.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

What do the Bluefield market measures say about my house?
The figures name their source, area, and period. They describe market activity or a modeled value, not the sale price for your particular house. Condition, repairs, occupancy, and timing affect your comparison.
Do I need to repair or clean out a house before selling to you?
No. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
What West Virginia transfer taxes and fees can affect closing?
West Virginia charges a real estate transfer excise tax of $1.10 per $500 of value, plus an additional county excise tax of 55 cents per $500; a county commission may raise the additional tax to as much as $1.65 per $500. Each $500 or fraction counts, and taxable value includes liens the buyer takes over. The county clerk also collects a $20 Affordable Housing Fund fee before recording. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the West Virginia real estate transfer excise tax and the additional county excise tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Is the sale price the same as the money I keep?
No. What remains depends on the sale price or written offer and costs such as repairs, cleanout, mortgage payoff, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and bills while you wait. The Bluefield calculator lets you compare your own assumptions; its result is an estimate, not an offer.
