What the numbers mean
A Frankfort-wide figure does not price your particular house
Each measure describes a market, source, and period—not the value of your address. Condition, needed repairs, access, and sale terms can all change the comparison. Redfin’s completed-sale measures and Zillow’s modeled home-value or inventory measures answer different questions, so keep their source and date beside each figure.
Repairs and cleanout can affect what you spend before a listing. Tenant occupancy and access can affect showing options, and a longer timeline can mean more utilities, insurance, and other carrying costs. Compare those details for your house with the written terms and timing you are considering.
Local selling costs
Kentucky’s real estate transfer tax
Kentucky charges 50 cents for each $500 of value, or fraction of $500—about 0.1%. State law places the tax on the grantor, meaning the seller, and the county clerk collects it before recording the deed. Some transfers are exempt; recording fees are separate. A title company can confirm whether an exemption applies and the final settlement figures for your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Kentucky real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
Kentucky Revised Statutes § 142.050: real estate transfer tax →
What you may keep
Sale price is not the same as money left after costs
Start with a realistic sale price or written offer, then account for applicable selling costs, repairs or cleanout, and any mortgage payoff or other amounts due. The remainder—not the headline sale price—is the amount you compare as net proceeds.
Just an estimate—the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Frankfort market report questions
What do the current Frankfort market numbers show?
The shared display labels each measure with its source, geography, and period. Redfin completed-sale measures, Zillow’s modeled home-value measure, and for-sale inventory describe different things; none prices a particular house.
Does Frankfort’s median sale price tell me what my house will sell for?
No. A town-wide median summarizes sales in the named place and period. Your house’s condition, repairs, access, occupancy, sale terms, and timing can change the comparison.
How can repairs, tenants, and timing affect my comparison?
Repairs and cleanout can add costs before a listing. Tenant occupancy and access can affect showing options, while the time you hold the property can add utilities, insurance, and other carrying costs. Use the facts for your own house rather than a town-wide figure.
Who pays Kentucky’s real estate transfer tax?
Kentucky law places the tax on the grantor—the seller—and the county clerk collects it before the deed is recorded. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Kentucky real estate transfer tax. Mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
What is the difference between a sale price and what I keep?
The sale price is the amount for the property before deductions. What you keep is the amount left after applicable selling costs, repairs or cleanout, and any mortgage payoff or other amounts due. The Frankfort calculator lets you compare your own assumptions.
