Home Prices Continue Rising, But So Do Seller Costs

As home prices continue to rise in Georgia and around the country, sellers can expect to earn more from their investments in their homes. However, they should also expect to pay more to sell their properties in the coming months. A recent study shows that average real estate taxes, fees and commissions across the country rose to $21,000 in early 2019, a 13% increase when compared to a year earlier. Sellers are also spending more on home improvement projects such as painting or staging before putting their homes on the market.
