So you need to sell your house. Are you ready for this?! Do you know how to calculate the costs? Do you even know what costs to consider? Well to each their own. Your basic expenses such as realtor commissions and closing costs, there are other costs to consider, such as repairs, marketing, and staging.
One option to eliminate these costs is to sell your house to a professional cash home buyer like Particular Properties ! We can make you a direct cash offer on your property. No financing is involved. This save a substantial amount of time and typically can close within just a week or so. If you still want options here’s a breakdown of the potential costs you may face when selling your house in Florida, and how Particular Properties can help you avoid these costs altogether.
Commissions and Closing Costs
When you sell your house through a real estate agent, you would typically pay a commission of 5-6% of the sale price. Now, with this whole NAR settlement you can possibly see these %’s coming down. I’d say closer to 2-4% depending on the brokerage. This still can be a significant expense, particularly if your house is valued at a higher price point. So, for example, if your house sells for $350,000, you could be paying anywhere in between $7,000-$14,000 in commissions alone. In addition to commissions, you’ll also need to pay closing costs, which can include appraisal fees, title insurance, doc stamps, title transfer fees, and other expenses.
When you sell your house to Particular Properties , you won’t need to pay any commissions or closing costs. Particular Properties will make you a cash offer for your house and take care of all the paperwork and closing costs associated with the sale.

Repairs and Renovations
If your house is in need of repairs or renovations, you’ll need to invest time and money to get it ready for sale. This can include anything from fixing a leaky roof to updating your kitchen or bathroom. Depending on the state of your house, these costs can quickly add up. You’ll need to walk the line between making repairs to attract buyers and spending too much on a home you will no longer own. If you don’t have a family member that is handy and can do all these repairs for you its extremely hard to find someone let alone have them finish the job! Ask me how I know this 😉
