What the numbers mean
A market figure is context, not a price for your house
Redfin’s sale and activity measures describe completed sales and market activity for the place and period shown. Zillow’s typical home value is a separate modeled measure, not a completed-sale price.
Zillow’s typical home value for additional market context is $144,450 (As of August 2026; Zillow typical home value for Huntington, WV). It is not a price for your address.
Your house’s condition, repair or cleanout needs, whether tenants live there, available access, and your timing can all change the comparison. Put those facts beside a realistic listing plan or written cash offer and the costs you would carry while selling. A town-wide figure does not price your particular house.
Local selling costs
West Virginia transfer tax and Huntington’s county lines
Huntington is the county seat of Cabell County and the city extends into Wayne County. A Huntington mailing address does not establish which county covers a particular parcel. The City’s Planning & Zoning page links to a City Boundary Lookup; check the address and confirm the parcel’s county before applying a county rate.
West Virginia charges an excise tax when real-estate title transfers. The first county excise tax is $1.10 per $500 of value. An additional county excise tax starts at $0.55 per $500; a county commission may raise that additional tax to as much as $1.65 per $500. Each $500 or fraction counts, and taxable value includes liens the buyer takes over. At base rates, the combined tax is $330 on $100,000 of taxable value; at the maximum additional county rate, it is $550. The county clerk also collects a $20 Affordable Housing Fund fee before recording. The additional county rate for a specific parcel should be confirmed with the county clerk or settlement company.
State law places payment on the seller unless the buyer accepts the deed without the tax paid. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the West Virginia real estate transfer excise tax and the additional county excise 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
The sale price is the gross amount, not what remains after costs and payoffs. 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, and bills while you wait.
The calculator lets you change planning assumptions for your comparison. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.
Huntington market report questions
Do Huntington market numbers tell me what my house is worth?
No. The market display describes measures for the source, place, and period shown beside each figure. Redfin sale and activity measures and Zillow’s modeled typical home value answer different questions. Condition, repairs, occupancy, and timing affect your comparison; a citywide figure does not price your particular house.
Which West Virginia transfer taxes apply to a Huntington sale?
West Virginia charges a real-estate transfer excise tax of $1.10 per $500 of value, plus an additional county tax that starts at $0.55 per $500 and may be raised to $1.65 per $500. The county clerk also collects a $20 Affordable Housing Fund fee before recording. Confirm the parcel’s county and the applicable county rate. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the West Virginia real estate transfer excise tax and the additional county excise tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
How is the sale price different from what I may keep?
The sale price is the gross amount, not the money left after costs and payoffs. Your mortgage, liens, taxes, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, and bills while you wait can change what remains. Use the calculator link on this page to compare your own planning assumptions; its result is an estimate, not a property-specific offer.
