The costs of selling a home range from 10% to 15% of the sale price on average. The fees for selling a house typically include 5% to 6% in realtor commissions, 1% to 4% in mandatory closing costs, and 4% to 5% in optional costs for home improvements and moving expenses.

The cost of selling a house with a Realtor is typically between 5% and 6% of the sales price of the home. In this example, if your Realtor charges a 5% commission on your home sale and the house sells for $200,000, the commission would total $10,000.

Selling a home can come with significant costs, and realtor commission fees often top the list. On average, sellers pay about 5.32% of the home's sale price on realtor fees, 2.74% going to the seller's agent and 2.58% going to the buyer's agent.

In a typical home sale, the seller typically pays all realtor fees, also called real estate agent commissions. These fees typically range from 5% to 6% of the home’s sale price. For example, selling a $500,000 home at a 5.5% total commission would result in $27,500 in realtor fees.
