Zillow Research source →What the numbers mean
A city-wide measure does not price your house
A median sale price summarizes completed sales in the stated place and period. Zillow’s typical home value is a different, modeled measure. Neither figure is an appraisal or a price for your address, and days on market is not a promised timeline for your sale.
For your comparison, consider the home’s condition and repairs, whether it is occupied or rented, what access is workable, and when you need to sell. Those details can change the work and costs involved in a listing or a direct-sale conversation.

Local selling costs
Put Ohio’s conveyance fee in the closing comparison
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a deed transfers. State law sets a required $1 per $1,000 of the price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000. The seller is responsible for the fee under Ohio law; confirm the amount for the Allen County property in the settlement figures. When you sell to us, we pay it.
See Ohio Revised Code § 319.54 and § 322.02 for the state fee and county authority. This statement is about the Ohio conveyance fee, not every tax or closing charge.
Other costs depend on the property and the sale terms. Compare any mortgage payoff, repairs or cleanout, listing commission if you list, utilities, insurance, and other closing costs before deciding what you may keep.
What you may keep
Sale price and net proceeds are different numbers
The sale price is not the amount left for you. Subtract the mortgage payoff and the costs that apply to your sale, such as repairs, cleanout, listing commission if you list, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while you own the house.
The Lima calculator lets you change planning assumptions to compare listing with selling as-is. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
Compare what you may keep with the Lima calculator →Lima market report questions
Does the Lima median sale price show what my house is worth?
No. A city-level median describes sales in its stated place and period; it does not price your address. Zillow’s typical home value is a separate modeled measure. Condition, repairs, occupancy, access, title, and sale terms all affect a property-specific comparison.
Can I sell a Lima house that needs repairs or cleaning?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Your property details still matter when you compare written terms with a listing plan.
What costs change how much I may keep?
Start with the sale price or written offer, then account for mortgage payoff, repairs and cleanout, listing commission if you list, other closing costs, and bills such as utilities and insurance while you own the house. Your actual numbers depend on the property and sale terms.
Who pays Ohio’s conveyance fee?
Ohio law makes the seller responsible for the conveyance fee. The state fee is $1 per $1,000 of the price, and Allen County may add up to $3 per $1,000. When you sell to us, we pay it.
