What determines Auburn home prices?
When a property is listed on the Multiple Listing Service a property comparison report or similar is produced by the real estate agent. Homeowners can use this report to determine listing price options along with other relevant advice from their real estate agent.
A property comparison report contains recently sold homes that are comparable to the subject property. Adjustments are made to the subject property for features such as square footage, over all condition, bedroom count plus more.
Making Your Offer
How much will you pay for you next Auburn home? Because the listing price is set, this may or may not be what you can expect to pay. Prior to making an offer gathering data by researching comparable homes and understanding the existing real estate market are an essential part of the home buying process. Good negotiation skills may also contribute to the ultimate accepted purchase price.

Auburn Real Estate Transactions Require a Title Report
A real estate title report is prepared after a property title search has been conducted. They contain comprehensive property information and play a significant role in Auburn real estate transactions of all types.
There are several different types of reports and most contain historical data about the property and owners to determine if the property:
- has liens such as mortgages or assessments.
- has restrictions such as use of land.
The records and data used to produce a real estate title report are public, however, a title company or attorney are often used.
Real estate buyers frequently purchase title insurance. This is an insurance policy sold by a title company in support of its findings. It protects the buyer from unforeseen property issues that may arise after a real estate closing.
Most mortgage companies require title insurance as part of their approval to ensure a clean title is in place.
A title report is an important part of buying and selling real estate in Auburn. If you have questions about title reports or other practices involving a real estate in Auburn contact Weichert Realtors- Porter Properties.

Real Estate closing costs are fees associated with the closing of a real estate transaction. When a home is transferred from a seller to a buyer is referred to as the closing. Typically the majority of closing costs are paid at this time, while some are paid prior.
Standards or regulations surrounding closing costs vary from state to state.
Seller closing costs are often those associated with the sale and transfer of the property such as:
Buyer closing costs are often those associated with the mortgage application such as:
- Application fee
- Points
- Pre-paid interest
- Credit report
- Appraisal
Closing costs can be part of the purchase price negotiation process. Both parties must agree to the terms of the transaction and who is responsible for the closing costs. For example, a buyer may ask the seller to pay points or mortgage pre-paid interest if they need assistance buying down the mortgage interest rate.
Because every Auburn Alabama real estate transaction is unique, it is important to work closely with a Real Estate Agent to understand what closing costs are your obligations, what can be negotiated and when they need to be paid.
Contact Weichert Realtors – Porter Properties if you have questions about Opelika – Auburn Alabama real estate closing costs and how they will affect your next real estate transaction.
