How to Sell Your House Without a Realtor in Anthem, AZ
To sell your house by owner in Anthem, price it off recent Anthem sales, make Arizona's disclosures, and close through a licensed title company. Listing is free, and ClozeEZ's only charge is a flat $300 Platform Success Fee owed if the sale closes, with no percentage and no fee if it does not.
How do I price a Anthem home without much local sold data?
There are not yet enough closed Anthem sales on ClozeEZ to publish a median, so this page does not quote one. Pull recent closed sales of similar homes from Maricopa County records, or hire a licensed appraiser.
What should you know before you sell your Anthem home by owner?
The median Anthem home was built in 2004, and the median homeowner paid $3,184 in real estate taxes for the year, Census estimates show. Those two figures tell you what buyers will ask about and what escrow will split at closing.
Buyers looking at a home built around 2004 will want to know which big items are original and which are new. List the roof, air conditioner and water heater, with install dates where you have them. Keep receipts and warranties in one folder for the buyer's inspector. Records like these can settle questions before they turn into repair requests.
Treat the $3,184 figure as a guide, since your own bill may be higher or lower. Escrow divides the year's tax at the closing date. Your share covers the days before it, and the buyer pays from there. Look up your current amount through the Maricopa County Treasurer's Office, whose site at treasurer.maricopa.gov searches by parcel number, name or address. The county office for assessed values is the Maricopa County Assessor's Office, online at mcassessor.maricopa.gov.
An Arizona Department of Water Resources map layer places Anthem inside the Phoenix Active Management Area. In an AMA, the state sets the rules for groundwater use. A buyer may ask what that means, so keep that short answer ready.
