## Seller Closing Costs

Sellers typically pay 7-10% of the sale price in closing costs. Understanding these costs helps set a realistic net proceeds expectation.

### Major Seller Costs

- **Agent commission**: The largest cost, typically 4-6%
- **Transfer tax / deed stamps**: State and local taxes on the property transfer
- **Title insurance**: Seller may be responsible for the owner policy (varies by state)
- **Attorney fees**: Required in some states for settlement

### Prorations and Adjustments

- Property taxes are prorated to the closing date
- HOA dues prorated or transfer fees charged
- Seller responsible for any liens, judgments, or payoffs

### Negotiable Items

Seller concessions toward buyer closing costs are common negotiation tools. Limits apply: conventional loans allow 3-9% seller concessions depending on buyer down payment.
