What the numbers mean
Compare the market with the house you may sell
Market measures summarize homes across an area and period. Your home's condition, needed repairs, whether tenants live there, and the timing you want all shape your own comparison.
When we review a Webster Groves house, we talk through its condition, known repairs, who lives there, and your timing. Then you can compare a direct as-is sale with listing, repairs, or waiting.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
Local selling costs
Missouri transfer taxes and deed recording charges
Missouri's Constitution bars the state and local governments from imposing new taxes on a real-estate sale or transfer after December 2, 2010. Recording a deed has a separate charge set by state law: $5 for the first page and $3 for each additional page, plus fees that state law adds per document. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges.
Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.
What you may keep
Sale price and money left after costs are different numbers
A higher sale price does not always mean more money in your pocket. Repairs, your mortgage payoff, listing commission, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while waiting can all affect what remains. Use the calculator to compare the money left under different choices.
