Assumptions: Transfer tax rates are combined state + typical county estimates — actual rates vary by county and transaction specifics. VA/MD/NC are tuned to VroomBrick’s operating markets; other states use published statewide norms. Title & settlement defaulted to $1,500 (editable). Listing admin fee of $500 applied to traditional side only. VroomBrick technology fee is 1% of sale price and replaces the traditional listing commission; the buyer’s agent commission is paid in both models (since the seller offers it in the listing regardless). HOA pro-ration approximated from dues, frequency, and closing date.

Always consult a licensed professional (attorney, CPA, or mortgage advisor) before making a financial decision. VroomBrick is a real estate technology platform, not a licensed real estate brokerage. Real estate agent commissions and fees are not set by law and are fully negotiable. Savings estimates are illustrative and based on comparisons to typical market rates; actual savings and costs vary by transaction, state, and individual circumstances.
