Canton home sale calculator: what you'd actually put in your pocket
The sale price is only the starting point. What matters is what you keep after your payoff, repairs, fees, and other costs come out. That's your net proceeds.
The home value starts with Zillow’s typical value for the area. Your house may be worth more or less. You can change the value and every cost below. Adjust anything you know, including your payoff, repair or credit risk, cleanout cost, agent commission, and how long you expect to carry the property.

See what you'd actually walk away with.
Your starting home-value estimate may come from a public source when one is available. You can edit that estimate and each cost input above; your property's actual value and closing costs may differ.
Choose the condition that best fits your home, then update the value, mortgage payoff, and cost inputs with what you know. This is an estimate for local costs, not a verified local tax rate.
Three simple steps
1
Tell us about your house
Share the address, what needs work and who lives there. Tell us when we can see it and when you want to sell.
2
Get your offer
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
3
Close
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
Your situation
Selling a Canton house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. It doesn't always work, but it works more often than people think.
Fire damage
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
Liens and back taxes
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Tenants
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Code violations
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Divorce
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Selling costs in Stark County: the conveyance fee
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells: state law requires $1 per $1,000 of the price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000 under Ohio law. The Stark County Auditor can confirm the current local amount. The Ohio conveyance fee is charged to the seller by law. When you sell to us, we pay it. See the Ohio conveyance-fee statute and Stark County Auditor information.
On a $100,000 sale, the state portion is $100; a county addition of up to $3 per $1,000 could add $300. The fee is separate from a mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
What Canton sellers should know
Older housing stock
The 2020–2024 ACS 5-year release estimates that 14,027 of Canton's 33,836 housing units (41.5%) were built in 1939 or earlier. That city-wide age profile does not tell you the condition of any one house. We buy houses as-is, so you do not need to make repairs or clean out the property to sell to us.
Rentals and occupied homes
The 2020–2024 ACS 5-year release estimates that renters occupy 15,039 of Canton's 29,302 occupied housing units (51.3%). If your property has tenants, we can review a sale while they are living there; no turnover or repairs are required to sell to us.
What our sellers say
“LISTEN, PROPERTY TAXES GOT TOO HIGH FOR MY FIXED INCOME. SOLD IT TO THEM. WALKED AWAY WITH CASH. GLAD IT'S OVER.”
