The Costs of Selling a House in El Portal, in Order of Size

For most El Portal sellers the list runs: the mortgage payoff, the brokerage commission, the Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed, title and settlement charges, property taxes for the part of the year you owned the home, association fees and estoppel charges where there is an association, and whatever you agree with the buyer after inspection. None of them is paid up front. They are deducted from the sale price on the closing statement, and what is left is wired to you.

Impuesto de sellos documentales en Miami-Dade County

Florida charges a documentary stamp tax on every deed, customarily paid by the seller. In Miami-Dade County the rate is 60 cents per $100 of the sale price for a single family home; other property types pay an additional county surtax of 45 cents per $100. On the median El Portal single family home sale of $995,000, the 60-cent rate comes to about $5,970. The rest of Florida pays 70 cents per $100, so a Miami-Dade single family seller pays slightly less than a seller across the county line.

Seguro de título y cargos de cierre en Miami-Dade County

Who pays for the owner's title insurance policy is a matter of local custom, and it is written into the contract. In Miami-Dade County the buyer customarily chooses the title company and pays for the owner's policy, which is the opposite of most of Florida and saves a El Portal seller a meaningful line on the closing statement. The seller still pays a settlement fee, the title search where the contract assigns it, a municipal lien search, and the cost of clearing anything it turns up, such as an open permit or an unpaid utility balance. All of it is negotiable, so read the contract rather than relying on custom.

Impuestos a la propiedad, tarifas de asociación y evaluaciones especiales

Los impuestos a la propiedad de Florida se pagan por adelantado, por lo que al cierre el vendedor acredita al comprador los impuestos desde enero 1 hasta la fecha de cierre; cuanto más tarde en el año cierre, mayor será ese crédito. Si la casa está en un condominio o en una asociación de propietarios, la asociación cobra por un certificado estoppel que muestra lo adeudado, con un cargo limitado por la ley de Florida, y cualquier cuota pendiente se liquida al cierre. Una evaluación especial que haya sido impuesta pero no pagada por completo es un asunto negociable: el contrato determina si el vendedor la paga por completo o el comprador la asume.

Reparaciones, créditos y preparación de la vivienda

After the inspection, most buyers ask for repairs or a credit. South Florida insurers care about four things, the roof, the electrical panel, the plumbing and the air conditioning, so a buyer's four point inspection tends to decide what is asked for. Knowing the roof's age and having permits closed before you list removes most surprises. Preparation costs (cleaning, paint, landscaping, staging) are optional, and we tell you which ones the El Portal comparables say will come back in the price and which will not.

Impuestos sobre la ganancia y vendedores extranjeros

Florida no tiene impuesto estatal sobre la renta, por lo que cualquier impuesto sobre su ganancia es federal. Los propietarios que hayan vivido en la vivienda como residencia principal durante dos de los últimos cinco años generalmente pueden excluir hasta $250,000 de ganancia, o $500,000 para una pareja casada que presenta una declaración conjunta; las propiedades de inversión y las segundas viviendas no califican, que es donde entra un intercambio 1031. Si el vendedor es una persona extranjera, por lo general el comprador debe retener, conforme a FIRPTA, 15% del precio de venta para el IRS, a menos que corresponda una excepción o un certificado de retención, algo que debe planificarse meses antes del cierre.

El Portal Costs Beyond the County Norms

Selling in El Portal brings a few costs specific to its older houses. Buyers order a septic inspection on most homes, insurers ask for four point and wind mitigation reports, and an open permit for a pool, an addition or a guest cottage must be closed or credited before closing. A riverfront house needs its elevation certificate and, often, a flood insurance quote early in the sale. The village lien search shows any code issue. Sellers also budget for presentation, from tree trimming and landscaping to paint, and for the documentary stamp tax that a Florida seller customarily pays on the deed in El Portal.

Selling a El Portal Condo or Association Home

An El Portal seller almost never deals with a condominium board, because the village is houses on their own lots, and homeowners associations are rare as well. The file buyers ask for instead is the village record: the permit history, any open code case and, when a cottage or the house itself is rented, the lease and the deposit, which pass to the buyer unless the tenant leaves first. If your El Portal home has a tenant, settle early whether the lease continues, because most buyers here plan to live in the house.

When El Portal Sellers Close Fastest

El Portal homes meet the most buyers in spring, when families plan a summer move and buyers from out of town are in Miami, though a well renovated house sells in any month. The steps that most often stretch a closing here are the septic inspection, open permits on past work and, by the river, flood insurance, so order the inspection and close out permits before you list. Hurricane season can slow the binding of insurance on any El Portal house, which is one more reason to start the paperwork early.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre el costo de vender

How much does it cost to sell a house in El Portal?
Apart from the mortgage payoff, a El Portal seller pays the brokerage commission, the Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed, title and settlement charges, prorated property taxes, any association estoppel fee and unpaid dues, and whatever repairs or credits are agreed after inspection. Everything is deducted at closing; nothing is paid up front. We prepare a written net proceeds estimate for your address before you decide.
¿Cuánto cuestan los sellos documentales en una venta de vivienda en Miami-Dade County?
In Miami-Dade County the documentary stamp tax on a deed is 60 cents per $100 of the sale price for a single family home, with an additional 45-cent surtax per $100 on other property types. On the median El Portal single family home sale of $995,000, the 60-cent rate is about $5,970. The seller customarily pays it.
¿Quién paga el seguro de título en Miami-Dade County, el comprador o el vendedor?
Según la costumbre local, el comprador elige la compañía de títulos y paga la póliza del propietario en Miami-Dade County, al igual que generalmente en Miami-Dade y Broward. En la mayoría de los demás condados de Florida paga el vendedor. Es una costumbre, no una ley, por lo que prevalece el contrato.
¿Pago impuestos sobre las ganancias de capital cuando vendo mi vivienda en Florida?
Florida no tiene impuesto estatal sobre la renta, por lo que cualquier impuesto sobre la ganancia es federal. Si la vivienda fue su residencia principal durante dos de los últimos cinco años, generalmente puede excluir hasta $250,000 de ganancia, o $500,000 para una pareja casada que presenta una declaración conjunta. Las segundas viviendas y las propiedades de alquiler no califican. Esta es información general, no asesoría tributaria; confírmelo con un CPA.
¿Tengo que hacer reparaciones antes de vender?
No. You can sell as is, and the standard Florida as is contract gives the buyer an inspection period rather than a repair obligation. Repairs become a negotiation after the inspection, usually settled with a credit. If you would rather avoid showings and inspections altogether, ask us for the guaranteed cash offer and compare it with the listing estimate.
