How To Sell Your House Without Enough Equity


Most people know that in traditional real estate sales, the seller pays for most of the costs associated with the transaction. Typical costs include the real estate commissions for both the buyer’s and seller’s agents, title insurance, escrow fees, real estate taxes, and often even fees for the buyer’s new loan.

In most cases, these costs can be about 10% - or more of the negotiated selling price. In today’s economy, money is tight for everyone. Particularly with FHA buyers, an additional 3% can be negotiated and come out of your sales proceeds.


This means that for every $100,000 in the selling price, between $10,000 and $13,000 will be taken out of your proceeds at the closing table! 




Do you feel so underwater that you are expecting

Imagine what you could do with that money– and more – depending on what price your house can sell. It’s crazy to give it to some rich agent just for showing your house a couple of times to a few people!

And this doesn’t include any repair or renovation costs a seller must pay for just to get the house onto the market! These days buyers are very fussy in the competitive market. They want move-in ready houses that are modern, well-maintained and clean.

No wonder many sellers simply cannot afford to sell under these conditions. If you’ve bought your home with 100% financing in the last 5 to 10 years you most likely don’t have enough equity to cover these costs. And even if you’ve put up a 5% or 10% down payment, you may still be under water ” due to the flat markets and no appreciation.
