Estimate what you could keep from a Presque Isle sale
See what you'd actually walk away with. We started with $179,198 (As of August 2026; Zillow typical home value for Presque Isle, ME). Source: Zillow Home Value Index, and the verified local transfer taxes or filing fees of $2.20 for every $500 of value or fraction of $500, split evenly between seller and buyer. Pick your home's condition, from light touch-ups to fire damage, and change any number.
Presque Isle, ME illustrative estimate
Presque Isle home sale calculator: what you'd actually put in your pocket
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.

The seller’s half is $1.10 for each $500, or part of $500, plus $1.90 for each $500, or part, of value above $1 million. The buyer pays a separate half. Exemptions may change the amount.
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. This estimate uses the tax rate and calculation shown above. Your percentage replaces it. Local taxes, exemptions and the property’s taxable value can change the final amount.

Choose the question closest to yours
Selling a Presque Isle house in a difficult situation
Foreclosure
If the court has entered a foreclosure judgment, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before the redemption period ends.
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.

Presque Isle selling costs: Maine’s real estate transfer tax
Maine taxes each deed that transfers real estate at $2.20 for every $500 of value or fraction of $500. By law, the seller and buyer split it evenly. On a $100,000 sale, that is 200 units × $2.20 = $440 total, or $220 each. Since November 1, 2025, value above $1,000,000 carries an additional $3.80 per $500. Certain transfers are exempt when they meet the conditions in the law; an estate or family transfer is not automatically exempt.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What Presque Isle sellers should know
City assessment maps and County deed records are different
The City Assessor maintains assessment, map, and ownership-of-record information and provides online GIS. The City says its parcel-map PDFs are general guidance, not survey-quality; use them for orientation, not as proof of title, exact boundaries, or a home's condition. The Aroostook County Registry of Deeds is the separate route for recorded land documents.
Presque Isle Assessor information → Aroostook County Registry of Deeds →
Check a code or certificate question by address
The City Code Office handles land-use and code questions. If you receive a notice or have a certificate question, ask the City what applies to that address; a Certificate of Occupancy item on the City permit list does not establish that every sale needs a certificate or inspection.
Contact Code Enforcement Officer Jason Perry at (207) 764-2570 or use the City's Code Office information → The City also lists a Certificate of Occupancy permit item →
Presque Isle and nearby towns are separate places
Aroostook County’s Southern Registry service-area list names Presque Isle, Caribou, Fort Fairfield, Washburn, Mapleton, and Easton separately. If a deed or property record mentions a nearby town, confirm which municipality and County office covers that parcel rather than treating it as part of Presque Isle.
