Joan,
I don't know if you've found the answers you're looking for, but I'd be happy to go over any questions you still have. The home buying and selling process can be complicated, but work with an experienced agent and you'll come out smelling like a rose!

Joan,

I am a local Redding, CA contact and have dealt with bare land which has and still is very popular in our area. There are some fees because a home is not invoved that will not apply so the overall fees may be lower than what you may experience when dealing with the purchase of a home or refinance.

Is the property listed or are you selling it yourself? Depending on this dynamic there are choices you can make that will can increase your bottom line as well.

The fees associated with an escrow officer are usually split between the two parties. Many of the other fees that revolve around trranfering title can be lower than expected because many times the dollar amounts for bare land are less than those your typical transaction involving a lot that has been fully developed.

A net sheet or goodfaith estimate can be provide without cost or obligation so that you can plan accordingly.
