What the Davenport numbers mean for your house
A town-wide figure does not price your particular Davenport house. Its condition, repairs or cleanout, whether tenants live there and what access is available, and your timing can change the comparison. Set those property-specific facts beside a realistic listing plan or written cash offer, including the costs and time you would carry the house while selling.
Iowa transfer tax and Davenport assessor details
Iowa’s real estate transfer tax is 80 cents for each $500, or fraction of $500, of the sale price above the first $500. On a $100,000 sale, that is $159.20 before any exemption. Iowa law normally makes the person conveying the property—the seller—liable for the tax. Some transfers are exempt, so the closing professional confirms whether it applies and the taxable amount.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Iowa real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
For an assessment question about a property in Davenport, start with the City Assessor. Scott County says its County Assessor serves Scott County except the City of Davenport; confirm the parcel jurisdiction if you are unsure.
What you may keep after the sale
The sale price is the gross amount, not the money left after costs. Compare a realistic sale price or written offer with your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, current property-tax share, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, other closing costs, and the time and bills you carry the house.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.
