Sellers -- closing costs?
What closing costs does the seller pay? Is there a way to estimate them (roughly) as a percentage of purchase price, like you can do with buyer closing costs?
We just want to be prepared when the time comes!

Re: Sellers -- closing costs?
For the closing I just did, the seller had to pay for satisfaction of the deed/mortgage, which is $210 and an escrow service fee of $75. I believe, but I'm not 100%, that those are set fees. Then, they also had to pay NYS transfer tax. I'm assuming that is a certain percentage of the sale of the house.
Additionally, if you are in arrears for taxes or any liens on the property, those costs are incorporated into the title fees.

Are you moving OOS?
I can't remember what our closing costs were as sellers -- I'm just being nosy.

It all depends on the Sale Price. If you would like to shoot me a quick mail with the sale price I can give you an estimate.
