What the numbers mean
A market measure is a comparison point, not your home's price
Redfin's median sale price summarizes completed sales in the place and period shown above. Zillow's typical home value is a separate modeled measure. Neither figure tells you what a particular house will sell for.
Zillow's current typical home value for this market is $260,943 (As of September 2026; Zillow typical home value for Sweetwater, TN). It is market context, not a price or offer for your address.
A house that needs repairs or cleanout may compare differently from a move-in-ready listing. Tenants and access can affect showings and timing; the date you need to sell can also change which option fits. Compare those details with a realistic listing estimate or written cash offer instead of using a town-wide figure as your result.

Local selling costs
Include Tennessee's realty transfer tax in the closing figures
Tennessee charges a realty transfer tax when the deed is recorded: 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property's value, whichever is greater. State law makes the buyer responsible, and the county register of deeds collects the tax for the state. It is a state tax; some transfers are exempt.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee's realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Read the Tennessee Department of Revenue recordation-tax information and its guidance on who pays and collects the transfer tax.
What you may keep
Sale price and money left after costs are different numbers
Start with a realistic sale price or written offer, then subtract the costs that apply: repairs and cleanout if you list, listing costs, your mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, other selling costs, and bills you carry while you wait. The amount left after those costs is your net, not the headline sale price.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
Use the Sweetwater calculator to change the assumptions and compare what you may keep from a listing with an as-is sale.

Sweetwater market report questions
Do Sweetwater market numbers tell me what my house is worth?
No. The figures summarize sales or modeled values for Sweetwater and their stated periods; they do not price your particular house. Condition, repairs, occupancy, access, and the timing you need can change the comparison.
What Tennessee realty transfer tax may apply when a house sells?
Tennessee charges 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property’s value, whichever is greater, when the deed is recorded. State law makes the buyer responsible, and the county register of deeds collects it for the state. Some transfers are exempt.
Do you pay closing costs if I sell to you?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee’s realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Is the sale price the amount I keep?
No. Money left after closing depends on the sale price or written offer minus the costs and amounts due, such as repairs and cleanout if you list, listing costs, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, and other selling or carrying costs. The calculator lets you change its planning assumptions for a listing-versus-as-is comparison.
