Estimate what you could keep from a Mobile sale
See what you'd actually walk away with. We started with Zillow's typical home value for Mobile, AL, $198,189 as of August 2026 (Source: Zillow Home Value Index), and the verified local transfer taxes or filing fees of 50¢ for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500, under Alabama deed tax. Pick your home's condition, from light touch-ups to fire damage, and change any number.
Mobile, AL illustrative estimate
Mobile, AL illustrative home sale net proceeds estimate
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.

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. The local-cost input is an editable cost reserve, not a verified local tax rate.

Choose the question closest to yours
Selling a Mobile house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
Our agreement of sale will often get a foreclosure sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.
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.

Prices, timing and your selling options

Mobile selling costs: Alabama deed tax
Alabama charges deed tax when a deed is recorded with the county probate judge: 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500. For example, a taxable value of $100,000 means $100 in deed tax; at $100,200, the tax is $100.50. The closing attorney confirms the taxable amount and whether a mortgage or vendor's lien with Alabama mortgage tax paid changes it. Tax and recording fees must be paid before the deed is recorded.
Give the closing attorney proof of the actual price or value so the deed can be recorded with that amount; without proof, the probate office uses the latest tax assessment and penalties can apply. For a property-specific amount or recording charge, ask the closing attorney or Mobile County Probate Court's Recording Division.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Alabama's deed tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What Mobile sellers should know
Check the mapped historic area before exterior work
Build Mobile lists locally and federally designated historic areas, including Old Dauphin Way and Africatown Historic District. Those names help orient you; they do not show whether a particular address falls inside a district. Check the City's maps and ask Build Mobile about the address and planned work before you budget exterior changes.
Keep city notices with the property records
Mobile Municipal Enforcement lists concerns such as substandard housing, dilapidated structures, high vegetation, and junk vehicles, and points residents to Mobile 311. If you have a notice, keep it handy and ask the City what it means for that address and any stated deadline. The public page is a contact route, not a finding about a particular property.
Testimonials are real, from our transactions, verified and approved by our attorneys. Each review shows the seller's actual location.

Questions about selling a house in Mobile
Can I sell a Mobile house without fixing it first?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us about the property so you can compare the written terms with another sale path.
What deed tax applies when a Mobile home is sold?
Alabama deed tax is 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500. A $100,000 taxable sale has $100 in deed tax; the closing attorney confirms the taxable amount and any applicable adjustment. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Alabama's deed tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Which county handles a property inside the City of Mobile?
Mobile County is the sole county with area inside the incorporated City of Mobile boundary. Nearby municipalities such as Prichard, Saraland, and Chickasaw are separate places. Confirm an individual property address and its land records before relying on a county or city office.
What should I do if the City has sent a code or housing notice?
Mobile Municipal Enforcement lists concerns including substandard housing, dilapidated structures, high vegetation, junk vehicles, and other hazards, and routes residents to Mobile 311. Keep the notice and ask the City about the address and any listed deadline.
Can I sell a fire-damaged house and keep the insurance proceeds?
You keep your insurance proceeds when we buy the house exactly as it stands. Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
Where can I check Mobile County deed or estate records?
The Mobile County Probate Court has separate Judicial and Recording divisions. Use the Judicial contact for estate-administration questions and the Recording division for deed and land-record searches; the court can direct you to the right office for your question.
Do Mobile historic-area names prove my house is in a district?
No. The City lists locally and federally designated historic areas, but a neighborhood name alone does not establish that a particular address is inside a mapped district. Check the address and map with Build Mobile before planning exterior work.
