HOME SERVICES You may need to freshen up your home with minor repairs, paint, flooring or landscaping before selling your home. It is good to have some resources before selling. Your REALTOR can usually give you some home services referrals.
Start looking for your new home.
HOME STAGER Home staging helps to prepare your home to sell so it appeals to the most potential buyers who will pay the highest possible price. They will give you advice on decluttering and can provide furniture and accessories if needed.
ESTATE RESOURCES A
Thinking of upgrading? Moving to a new area?
MORTGAGE LENDER Getting preapproved by a lender for a mortgage helps you shop for homes within your means and shows you’re a serious buyer. A lender can estimate how much mortgage you’ll likely qualify for and preliminary loan terms.
INSURANCE If you are purchasing another home Mortgage lenders require homeowners insurance. You also deserve peace of mind knowing that your most expensive purchase is protected.
HOME INSPECTOR Having a Home Inspection prior to selling lets you know of any issues and what repairs you should make to help improve the buyer’s confidence. There is also less likelihood of price negotiations.
TITLE COMPANY Title companies do a title search which is an examination of public records to determine and confirm a property’s legal ownership, and to find out whether there are any liens or claims on the property.
MOVING & STORAGE Hiring professional movers offloads the stresses of packing, heavy-lifting, and transporting and is well worth the money spent. For others, saving that money through a doit-yourself move is the way to go. There are also ways to mix-andmatch your services to get the help you really need
ATTORNEY Real estate attorneys help oversee home sales, from the moment the contract is signed through the negotiating period to closing. A seller’s attorney reviews sales contracts, communicates terms in a professional manner and attends closings to prevent mishaps.
HOME WARRANTY - Offering a home warranty will give your buyers comfort knowing that issues that may arise, such as appliance malfunction, HVAC, plumbing etc are covered by just a small service fee.
Thinking of upgrading? Moving to a new area?
Contact a trusted Real Estate Book agent with market knowledge in your area. Find a lender to help you determine your price range.
PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER Homes that use a professional photographer sell faster than homes with standard photos. Homebuyers judge whether or not to walk through a property by first seeing the listing photos online.

When estimating the total cost of living of a home in a given area, there’s more to consider than the mortgage. Don’t forget about property taxes, that annual fee you’ll be paying as long as you own the property. Even if the price may seem manageable on paper, sizable property taxes could cut into your disposable income more than you might initially expect.
Home buying can be both exciting and stressful. After all, there are so many factors that impact your decision, from the liveliness of a neighborhood to the quality of a local school district. But, an area’s affordability usually ranks among a home buyer’s most pressing concerns.
Now imagine there is a property tax increase from 2% to 2.5% in your municipality. Assuming no change in the appraisal value of your property, your property taxes will now jump to $2,500. If the appraisal on your property simultaneously comes in higher at $110,000, you would now face a property tax burden of $2,750.
HOW PROPERTY TAXES WORK
Property tax is calculated as a percentage of the appraised monetary value of a piece of property. It is collected by state and local governments in the United States and most property tax receipts go towards funding public services such as education, law enforcement, and local infrastructure.
The Tax Foundation recently released their 2019 State Business Tax Climate Index and has provided separate property tax analysis, which is an intuitive way to see how your state compares to others over the last few years. Heading into 2019, states like Arkansas, North Dakota, Oklahoma and Wyoming have fallen in the property tax rankings, while Alaska and Delaware gained a whopping fifteen and eleven places respectively from 2018. With that said, North Dakota still ranks 6th amongst all 50 states, so it’s important to consider the absolute rank of each state in addition to its year-over-year change. For those looking for detailed property tax information across the entire U.S., the Lincoln Institute has published an expansive study comparing property taxes across all states in 2017. So, when estimating the cost of purchasing a new home, don’t forget to factor in property taxes as an unavoidable recurring expense. To do so, you must understand how property taxes work and what to look for when evaluating the affordability of a neighborhood. No matter what the price tag of your new home, understanding property taxes, and how they might fluctuate year over year, is the surest way to keeping your finances firmly under control.
While the specific property taxes you face might differ significantly by local market, there are some general similarities that anyone looking to buy a home should understand. That way, you might be able to find an effective way to minimize your property tax burden.
The property tax rate (sometimes referred to as the “millage rate”) is determined by local governments. A municipality will hire a tax assessor to estimate the current market value of a property. Property tax is then applied only on the assessed value, not on the purchase Propertyprice. tax is usually applied only on real property, although personal property can sometimes be subject to property tax as well. Real property is defined as land and buildings, while personal property includes items like cars and boats that might occupy the real property.
It’s important to pay attention to the expected future value of a property you might be looking to purchase as well as the property tax rates of that area. And, if current urban housing trends are any indication, expect those taxes to only increase when purchasing property in one of the cities with the fastest rising real estate prices in the U.S. This means that while the estimated current market value of the property may increase, you will have to shoulder a heavier property tax burden in the meantime.
PROPERTY TAX FORECASTING TRENDS FOR 2019
HOW PROPERTY TAX IS CALCULATED
Imagine that you live in an area with a 2% property tax rate on real property. Following a real estate appraisal of $100,000, you will then face $2,000 in annual property taxes, calculated by multiplying the 2% property tax rate on the $100,000 assessed property value.
