Local selling costs
New Hampshire real estate transfer tax
New Hampshire charges both the buyer and seller $0.75 for each $100—or part of $100—of taxable price. Each party's tax is rounded to the nearest whole dollar; for a price of $4,000 or less, the minimum is $20 per party. The closing professional handles tax stamps and required state filings, including any exemption. Read the rate and minimum in RSA 78-B:1, the buyer-and-seller and rounding rule in RSA 78-B:4, and the New Hampshire Department of Revenue Administration filing guidance.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New Hampshire real estate transfer tax.
No agent commissions when you sell to us.
No fees.
What you may keep
Compare the money left after costs, not just the sale price
Sale price and money left after costs are different. Repairs, your mortgage payoff, listing commission if you list, and the cost of keeping the house while you sell all change what remains.
