What the numbers mean
A town-wide figure does not price your house
Condition and repair needs affect what a buyer may pay and what you might spend before listing. Tenants and access can change the practical choices and timing. Bills you carry while preparing, listing, or waiting also change what you may keep.
Zillow's typical home value is a separate modeled measure, not a completed-sale price for your address: $227,891 (As of September 2026; Zillow typical home value for Newport, TN).
Compare the house you own with the options you are considering. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Local selling costs
Include Tennessee's realty transfer tax in the comparison
Newport is Cocke County's county seat. Tennessee charges a realty transfer tax when the deed is recorded: 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property's value, whichever is greater. State law makes the buyer responsible, and the county Register of Deeds collects this state tax. Some transfers are exempt.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee's realty transfer 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
Start with a realistic sale price or written offer. Then account for your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, share of current property taxes, repairs and cleanout, selling costs, and the bills you carry while you wait. The sale price is not the amount you keep.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

What do the current Newport market numbers show?
Read each measure with the source, place, and period shown beside it. The figures give market context for comparing choices, not a price for your address.

No. A town-wide figure does not price a particular house. Condition, repairs, tenants and access, and timing can change the comparison for your property.
