Frequently asked questions

What does a seller pay at closing in Delaware?

Typically the seller's share of the realty transfer tax (usually 2% when the 4% total is split evenly), any agent commission, mortgage and lien payoffs, and settlement fees, plus any credits agreed with the buyer. When Silverside buys your house, we pay all closing costs, including your share of the transfer tax, so only payoffs and prorations come out of your proceeds.

Is the 4% transfer tax always split 50/50?

That's the custom, but it's negotiable in the contract. See our transfer tax guide.

Do nonresidents have extra withholding?

Yes. Nonresident sellers file an estimated tax declaration (REW-EST) and tax on the gain is withheld at closing unless an exemption applies. See capital gains.
