What the numbers mean
Start with the market; compare your own house
The median sale price summarizes sales for the place and period named in the display. Your own comparison also depends on your home’s condition, repair needs, tenant arrangements, selling costs, and timing.
For a listing, expected repairs and cleanup, a tenant’s lease or access needs, and the time you carry the home all affect what you may keep. We buy houses as-is, so no repairs, cleaning, or cleanout are required to sell to us.
Local selling costs
Wisconsin's real estate transfer fee
On a sale that isn't exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. That's $300 on a $100,000 sale. The fee is collected when the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt, and recording and other closing charges are separate from the transfer fee.
When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate and are not covered by those closing costs.

County records depend on the property location
Eau Claire spans Eau Claire and Chippewa counties, so the county responsible for property records depends on where the property is located.
What you may keep
Compare the sale price with your net proceeds
The sale price is not the amount you keep. Start with a realistic sale price or written offer, then account for the mortgage payoff and selling or closing costs. If you list, include commission and any repairs, cleanup, and bills while you wait.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

How should I compare the Eau Claire market numbers with my options?
Your home’s condition, repair needs, tenant arrangements, selling costs, and timing all affect how a listing compares with a direct sale.
Why does the report show measures from different providers?
Redfin reports recent sales; Zillow estimates typical home values. They offer different views of Eau Claire’s market.
How should I account for repairs, tenants, and timing?
Repairs and cleanup, a tenant’s lease or access needs, and bills while you wait can change the comparison. We buy houses as-is, so no repairs, cleaning, or cleanout are required to sell to us.
Is the sale price the amount I keep?
No. What you keep is the sale price or offer after the mortgage payoff and applicable selling and closing costs. Repairs, listing expenses, and bills while you wait can also affect the amount. The calculator is for comparing your assumptions: Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
