So How Much Will It Cost to Sell My Wellington Home?

If you are one of the many Wellington homeowners wondering how much will it cost to sell my Wellington home here’s the answer! Below you will find a list of the different fees you can expect to pay when selling your home in Wellington Florida or anywhere throughout Palm Beach County Florida.

Settlement or Closing Fee:
Some Wellington home sellers will use a title company while others will choose to hire a real estate attorney for closing their real estate transaction. The settlement or closing fee is a third-party fee that will vary from business to business, but in my experience, the cost is between $400 and $1,000.

Abstract Title Search:
This is another third-party fee that will vary but is usually between $150 and $350.

Lien Search:
In order to provide a clear title a lien search must be done and the cost will once again vary from business to business, which is usually between $150 and $350.

Title Insurance:
Title Insurance is a set fee based on the sales price of your home and in Palm Beach County it is customary for sellers to pay this fee, but this fee can always be negotiated with the buyer. Title insurance for a $200,000 home will have a rate of $1,075 and a $400,000 home will have a rate of $2,075.

State Tax/ Stamps (Doc Stamps):
This is another set fee based on the sales price of your home. Doc Stamps on a $200,000 home will have a rate of $1,400 while a $400,000 home will have a rate of $2,800.

Real Estate Commission:
In most cases, the real estate commission will be a percentage of the sales price, but occasionally it may be a flat fee. Your listing agreement will specify how much the real estate commission is, how/if it will be split with cooperating brokers, and the amount of commission they will receive.

Real Estate Transaction Fee:
Some brokerages will charge a transaction fee also commonly called a processing fee, compliance fee, or admin fee. These fees will vary from brokerage to brokerage, but the norm I often see is between $400 and $1,000.

HOA Estoppel:
If your home belongs to a homeowners association or condo association you will most likely be charged an HOA estoppel fee. The estoppel letter will be required by the closing agent in order to close. It lets them know whether or not you are in good standing with the association. If you are not up to date on your HOA dues or have violations, such as a home that needs to be pressure washed these items will be listed on the estoppel.

In my experience, this fee is between $250 to $750. (Please note the HOA estoppel is separate from the HOA application process, which most home buyers will have to go through).

Pro-rations:
Depending on your closing date you will either give the buyer a credit or receive a credit for real estate property taxes and HOA dues.

Miscellaneous Fees:
These types of fees typically include recording fees, mailing, and wiring expenses, which could be as low as $50.
