What the numbers mean
A citywide measure is only a starting point
Read each measure with its source, geography and period. Completed-sale prices and a modeled typical home value measure different things; neither prices one address or sets a cash offer.
Condition, repair needs, cleanup, access and whether the house is vacant or tenant-occupied can all change the options and costs to compare. Timing matters too: listing may mean more time paying utilities, insurance and other carrying costs while you wait. A Stockton-wide figure cannot account for those details at your address.
For a direct sale, we buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Local selling costs
California documentary transfer tax
For taxable consideration over $100, California counties charge documentary transfer tax at $0.55 for each $500, or fraction of $500 ($1.10 per $1,000). A lien or loan that remains on the property after the sale is excluded from that calculation. A city may take half of the county rate as its own share, credited against the county tax; some cities add a larger transfer tax. Have title or escrow confirm the applicable Stockton tax and taxable amount for the property and transfer.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the county documentary transfer tax and any city transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate settlement items.
What you may keep
Sale price is not the same as money left after costs
Net proceeds are what remains after costs and payoffs, not the headline sale price. Compare a realistic listing price or written offer with repairs, cleanout, selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes and the bills you expect while you wait. The calculator lets you change assumptions for your own comparison.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Questions sellers ask
Do Stockton market numbers tell me what my house will sell for?
No. Each measure describes its stated source, area and period; a citywide figure does not price your particular house. Condition, repairs, occupancy, access and timing can change the options and costs for your property.
What changes how much I may keep after selling?
Compare a realistic sale price or written offer with the costs that apply to your house, including mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, repairs, selling costs and bills while you wait. The amount left after costs is different from the sale price.
How is California documentary transfer tax figured?
For taxable consideration over $100, the county documentary transfer tax is $0.55 for each $500 or fraction of $500 ($1.10 per $1,000); a lien or loan that remains on the property is excluded from that calculation. A city may take half of the county rate as its own share, credited against the county tax, and some cities add a larger tax.
