Step 2
I run the comps
I pull recent sales and active listings in your neighborhood and build a real comparative market analysis — not an automated guess.
Step 3
We talk it through
I'll walk you through the number personally, with no obligation, so you understand exactly what's driving it.
What does it actually cost to sell a home in Newport Beach?
The main costs are agent commission, title and escrow fees, and California's county/city transfer taxes — the exact commission split between listing and buyer's agents is negotiated per transaction, not a fixed industry rate. On top of that, typical sellers budget for escrow and title fees (commonly in the low single-digit percent of sale price), plus any repairs or credits negotiated with the buyer. On a coastal Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, or Corona del Mar property, pricing strategy and timing usually move the final number far more than any of these fees do. I walk every seller through the real, itemized cost breakdown for their specific property before we list — request a valuation below and I'll include it.
