What the Springfield market numbers mean for your house
Compare Springfield’s home values and recent sales below. Redfin’s sale figures describe completed sales; Zillow’s typical home value is modeled. They answer different questions.
Zillow’s modeled figure is market context, not a price for your particular house: $301,926 (As of September 2026; Zillow typical home value for Springfield, MA).
The condition of your house, repairs, tenants, and the timing you need can all change the comparison between listing and a direct sale. A citywide figure cannot account for those details.
Massachusetts deeds excise and local selling costs
Massachusetts calls its deed transfer tax the deeds excise. For a sale over $100, the standard rate is $2.28 for each $500 or fraction of $500 ($4.56 per $1,000). Springfield is in Hampden County, so the higher combined state-and-county rate that applies in Barnstable County does not apply here. At the standard rate, a $100,000 sale has $456 in deeds excise. State law makes the person signing the deed responsible; in a sale, that is the seller. Exceptions apply, and the closing professional confirms the amount for the deed.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Massachusetts deeds excise.
Keep your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes separate in the comparison; Those amounts are separate from the closing costs we pay.
What you may keep after the sale
The sale price is not the money left in your pocket. Net proceeds are what remains after costs such as mortgage payoff, repairs or cleanout, agent commission if you list, other closing costs, and the bills you carry while waiting. Change the assumptions to compare the numbers for your house.
No agent commissions when you sell to us. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
Springfield market report questions
Does Springfield’s median sale price tell me what my house is worth?
No. Springfield-wide market measures do not price one address. Condition, repairs, occupancy, title details, and timing can change the comparison for your house.
What deeds excise applies to a Springfield sale?
For a sale over $100, the standard Massachusetts deeds excise is $2.28 for each $500 or fraction of $500, or $4.56 per $1,000. Springfield is in Hampden County; the higher combined state-and-county rate applies in Barnstable County. At the standard rate, the excise on a $100,000 sale is $456. The closing professional confirms the amount and any exception. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Massachusetts deeds excise. Mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
Is the sale price the amount I would keep?
No. What you keep is the sale price after costs such as mortgage payoff, repairs or cleanout, selling costs, and the bills you carry while waiting. Use the Springfield net-proceeds calculator to compare and adjust the numbers for your situation.
How can repairs, tenants, or timing affect the comparison?
Repairs, tenants, and timing can change the costs and options for a particular house. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
