Common home-selling fees you avoid

When you sell with We Buy Ugly Houses, you don’t have to worry about:

• Pre-sale home inspection: Unlike traditional home sales where buyers often request inspections, We Buy Ugly Houses conducts our own in-person consultation for free, where we will take a full assessment of your property. This means you don’t need to worry about the cost of a pre-sale home inspection.
• Home improvements and staging: Getting a house market-ready often involves repairs, upgrades, and professional staging. With us, you can sell your house “as is” in a direct sale.
• Title insurance: We Buy Ugly Houses typically covers title insurance, which protects both parties against any potential issues with the property’s title.

Home-selling costs we don’t cover

While We Buy Ugly Houses^® covers many costs, there are still some expenses you may need to consider:

• Moving costs: The cost of relocating to your new home is the responsibility of the seller.
• Mortgage payoff: If you have an existing mortgage on the property, you’ll need to pay it off from the proceeds of the sale.
• Capital gains taxes: Thankfully, Texas doesn’t have a state capital gains tax, according to Texas Real Estate Source. But if you’re selling an out-of-state property, you may be responsible for paying taxes on the capital gains from the sale. It’s advisable to consult with a tax professional to understand your obligations.
• Property tax: Sellers are responsible for property taxes up until the closing date.
• Transfer tax: In San Antonio, there may be transfer taxes associated with selling your property, which you would need to cover.
