What the numbers mean
A town-wide figure does not price your house
Condition and repairs can change what a listing would take to prepare and what you might spend. With tenants, occupancy and access can affect the comparison; timing also changes how long you carry the property and its bills. Compare those details for your address instead of treating a city-wide measure as its price.

Kentucky selling costs
Include the Kentucky real estate transfer tax
Kentucky charges 50 cents for each $500 of value or fraction of $500—about 0.1%. On a $100,000 sale, that is $100. The seller, called the grantor, owes the tax by law, and the county clerk collects it before the deed is recorded. The value includes the full price paid, including liens the buyer takes over. Some transfers are exempt; have the title company confirm whether an exemption applies. Recording fees are separate.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Kentucky real estate transfer 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
Start with a realistic listing price or written offer, then subtract the costs that apply to that path. Your mortgage payoff, repairs and cleanout, listing commission if you list, other selling costs, and bills while you wait can all affect what remains. A higher sale price does not automatically mean you keep more.
Use the Elizabethtown calculator to change the planning assumptions and compare a listing with an as-is sale. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
