Current market numbers
No maintained Tyler figures to substitute here
The current maintained market data has no source-labeled Tyler observation for this report. Rather than use a county or statewide number as if it described Tyler, compare the facts for the particular house below.
What the numbers mean
A market measure does not price your particular house
A town-wide figure describes the geography and period shown with that measure. It is a starting point for comparing choices, not a price for your address. Condition, needed repairs, cleanup, who lives there, tenant access, title or payoff questions, and the timing you need can all affect the comparison.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Compare that option with the costs and time involved in preparing and listing the house.
Texas selling costs
Transfer tax is not part of a Texas home sale
Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale conveying full ownership of real property. The Texas Constitution bars a new transfer tax on that kind of sale. The deed still has to be signed before a notary and recorded with the county clerk; recording fees are based on pages, not the sale price, and the fee is higher if the deed leaves out the buyer’s mailing address.
The 2025 Census boundary comparison shows a positive-area intersection between the incorporated Tyler city polygon and Smith County only. That is useful for orientation, not a parcel-specific county or title determination. The Smith County Clerk directory lists Official Public Records and Land Records; check the particular property’s records and actual county when confirming where a deed is recorded.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
What you may keep
Compare the sale price with the money left after costs
The sale price is not the amount you keep. Compare repairs and cleanout, listing commission if you list, other selling costs, utilities and insurance while you wait, your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes. Those address-level costs and balances can change the net even when two sale prices look alike.
Use the Tyler calculator to change the assumptions for your comparison. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home’s condition.

Questions about Tyler prices and selling costs
What do the Tyler market numbers tell me about my house?
No maintained source-labeled market measures are available for Tyler in this report right now. It does not replace them with an unlabelled county or statewide figure, and a town-wide measure would not price your particular house.
Does Texas charge a real-estate transfer tax when I sell?
No. Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale conveying full ownership of real property. A deed is signed before a notary and recorded with the county clerk; recording fees are based on pages, not the sale price. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Do I need to repair, clean, or clear out a Tyler house before selling to you?
No. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
How do I compare a sale price with what I would keep?
A sale price is not the same as money left after costs and balances. Compare repairs and cleanout, listing commission if you list, other selling costs, utilities and insurance while you wait, your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes. The calculator lets you change planning assumptions; its result is just an estimate.
