# What does it cost to sell a home in Williamsburg?

Selling costs include agent commission, attorney fees, transfer taxes, and any buyer credits. Standard commission is 5 to 6 percent of sale price. NY State transfer tax is 0.4 percent. NYC transfer tax is 1 to 1.425 percent depending on price tier - most Williamsburg condo sales hit the higher tier. Attorneys charge $1,500 to $3,500 flat fee. If you're in a condo building, factor in any unpaid common charges or assessments. The Franzese Group provides a complete net sheet up front so you know exactly what to expect at closing.
