[quote=Doooh]What are the transaction costs on a $500k home compared to a $150k?[/quote]
Doooh, I was coming from a seller’s standpoint. It is not uncommon to have to pay 6-7% of the purchase price in commissions in rural areas or to get a multi-zoned acreage sold. One of my friends had put in a very expensive pool and did not recoup the cost, returning to SD in 3 1/2 years.
I don’t know the transaction costs in TX. Not sure if they use title cos or attorneys to abstract or how much it costs for an appraisal on a residence sitting on farm or ranchland. Many variables could be different than CA. Maybe bake would know.
