The Real Cost of Selling a House the Traditional Way
Agent commissions, repairs, staging, and closing costs add up fast. See how much you could save by selling directly for cash.
Most homeowners do not realize just how expensive it is to sell a house through a real estate agent. Between commissions, repairs, staging, and closing costs, you could be looking at 8-10% of your sale price gone before you see a dime.
Here is a typical breakdown for a $300,000 home:
- Agent commissions (5-6%): $15,000-$18,000
- Repairs and updates: $5,000-$15,000
- Staging and photography: $2,000-$5,000
- Closing costs (1-3%): $3,000-$9,000
- Carrying costs while waiting to sell: $2,000-$6,000/month
That is potentially $30,000-$50,000 in costs. When you sell to ADPMI, there are no commissions, no repair costs, no staging, and no carrying costs. We buy your house as-is and cover the closing costs. The offer we make is the amount you walk away with.
