What the numbers mean
Your house’s details shape the comparison
Condition and needed repairs can change what a buyer may pay and what a listing plan costs. If tenants live in the house, the lease and access can affect timing. Your own timing also changes how long you may carry the property and its bills. We can compare those details for your house across the choices you are weighing.

Local selling costs
North Carolina charges an excise tax when a deed transfers real estate
The state excise tax on conveyances is $1 for each $500 of the price or value, and any part of $500 counts as a full $500. That is $200 on a $100,000 taxable transfer. By law, the seller pays the tax to the county Register of Deeds before the deed is recorded. Some transfers are exempt, including gifts and transfers under a will or by inheritance.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including North Carolina's excise tax on conveyances. 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
Compare a realistic sale price or written offer with your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, current property-tax share, repairs or cleanout if you list, other selling costs, and the bills you would carry while waiting. The amount left after those costs is what you may keep.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.

What excise tax applies when a North Carolina deed transfers a house?

How is the sale price different from what I may keep?
