Farmington, ME illustrative estimate
Farmington 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.

The seller’s half is $1.10 for each $500, or part of $500, plus $1.90 for each $500, or part, of value above $1 million. The buyer pays a separate half. Exemptions may change the amount.
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 estimate uses the tax rate and calculation shown above. Your percentage replaces it. Local taxes, exemptions and the property’s taxable value can change the final amount.
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
3
Close
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.
Selling a Farmington house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
If the court has entered a foreclosure judgment, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before the redemption period ends.
Fire damage
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
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.

Maine real estate transfer tax
Maine charges $2.20 for every $500 of a deed's value, or fraction of $500. The law splits the tax equally between the seller and buyer. For a $100,000 sale, the total is $440 and each side's share is $220. Since November 1, 2025, the portion above $1 million also has an additional $3.80 per $500.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What Farmington sellers should know
Farmington's comprehensive plan names four village centers: historic Downtown, Farmington Falls, Fairbanks, and West Farmington. The University of Maine at Farmington is in downtown. These are local orientation names, not parcel-boundary determinations. If a town map or notice is part of what makes the sale difficult, tell us about it; we can consider the house as it stands while you compare written terms.
Farmington's Town offices handle municipal assessment, maps, and code or planning questions; Franklin County provides probate and Registry of Deeds services. The Town's tax maps and code-planning resources can help identify a property-specific question, and we can review the house with you without requiring repairs or a cleanout first.
