What the numbers mean
How to compare the figures with your house
A median sale price reflects completed sales. Your house’s condition, repairs, occupancy, and timing help shape what a buyer may offer.
Repairs and cleanout can change the cost of listing. Whether the house is vacant, owner-occupied, or rented can affect access and timing. We can talk through the work, occupancy, and timing with you.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Compare that option with a realistic listing plan and the time and costs you would carry while waiting.
Local selling costs
Town and county taxes, plus Virginia deed costs
Strasburg is an incorporated town in north-central Shenandoah County. Shenandoah County says property inside an incorporated town gets a separate town real-estate-tax bill in addition to the county bill. Not sure whether a town bill applies to your house? Call us — we’ll sort it out with you.
Virginia grantor tax is 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value — about 0.1%. State law assigns the tax to the seller, though the sale contract can shift who pays. State recordation taxes are separate, and local recordation taxes may apply where adopted. The additional regional fees named in state law are limited to specified Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads jurisdictions; Shenandoah County is not among them. Exemptions and transfers with little or no consideration can change the tax, so the settlement agent confirms the actual amounts.
Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee.

What you may keep
Compare the sale price with money left after costs
The sale price is not the amount you keep. Compare a realistic price or written offer with mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and bills while you wait.
Use the calculator to compare a listing estimate with an as-is cash-sale estimate, and change the planning assumptions to fit your house. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.

Questions about the Strasburg market and selling costs
Does a Strasburg market number tell me what my house is worth?
No. A market number is a starting point, not a price for your house. Condition, repairs, occupancy, and timing all affect the comparison.
Does every Strasburg address get a separate Town real-estate-tax bill?
Shenandoah County says property inside an incorporated town gets a separate town real-estate-tax bill in addition to the county bill. Strasburg’s Town limits are smaller than the area covered by its comprehensive plan. Not sure which bill applies to your house? Call us — we’ll sort it out with you.
Who pays Virginia grantor tax and recordation taxes?
Virginia grantor tax is 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value, about 0.1%. State law assigns it to the seller, though the sale contract can shift who pays. State recordation taxes are separate, and local recordation taxes may apply where adopted; the settlement agent confirms the transaction amounts. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
What should I compare to estimate what I may keep?
Compare a realistic sale price or written offer with your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, repairs or cleanout, listing costs if you list, other selling costs, and bills while you wait. The calculator lets you change planning assumptions for your house.
Can repairs, tenants, or timing affect my choices?
Yes. Repair needs affect listing costs, tenants can affect access, and timing changes how long you pay the house’s bills. We can talk through those details and compare the options for your house.
