- Listing fee$18,000
- Buyer-agent fee (if you offer it)$16,500
- Title, settlement & recording (~1%)$6,000
- Estimated total costs$40,500
Sale price minus costs minus your mortgage payoff. The listing fee and the buyer-agent fee are two separate, negotiable fees; you choose whether to offer the buyer-agent side. Excludes any concessions you agree to.
- Down payment$60,000
- Estimated closing costs & prepaids (1% to 2%)$6,000 to $12,000
- Estimated cash to close$72,000 to $84,000
Buyer closing costs include lender, appraisal, inspection, and title fees plus prepaid tax and insurance escrow. Some scale with price and loan size, so a smaller down payment raises the loan-based fees. Excludes your earnest money, which is credited at closing.
Estimates only, for planning. Your actual numbers depend on your price, loan, lender, title company, and what is negotiated in the REPC. For a precise figure, request a personalized net sheet or call 801-999-8005.
How to use this calculator
Use the Seller net sheet to estimate your proceeds: enter your expected sale price and mortgage payoff, then set your listing fee and the buyer-agent fee you choose to offer. The calculator shows each fee separately, adds about 1 percent for title, settlement, and recording, and subtracts your payoff to estimate your net.
Use the Buyer estimate to plan your cash to close: enter the home price and your down payment, and see your down payment plus an estimate of closing costs and prepaid escrow, which typically run about 1 to 2 percent of the price.
The numbers behind it
- Listing fee and buyer-agent fee are separate. They are two distinct, negotiable fees paid to two different brokerages. Your listing fee is the only side your listing agent is paid, and you choose whether to offer to cover the buyer’s-agent side. See how Utah commissions work.
- Title, settlement, and recording run roughly 1 percent of the sale price for a seller in Utah.
- No transfer tax. Utah charges no real estate transfer or deed tax, which keeps closing costs lower than in many states.
- Buyer costs are a mix of lender, appraisal, inspection, and title fees plus prepaid tax and insurance escrow. Some scale with the price and loan size.

Utah Closing Cost Calculator FAQ
Frequently asked questions
-
How accurate is this Utah closing cost calculator?
It gives a solid planning estimate using typical Utah ranges: a seller net sheet built from your listing fee, the buyer-agent fee you choose to offer, and about 1 percent for title, settlement, and recording; and a buyer estimate of roughly 1 to 2 percent of the price for closing costs and prepaid escrow. Your exact figure depends on your loan, lender, title company, and what is negotiated in the REPC, so use it to plan and then request a personalized net sheet for precise numbers.
-
What does the seller net sheet include?
It breaks out the two commission fees separately, your listing fee and the buyer-agent fee you may choose to offer, plus roughly 1 percent for title, settlement, and recording, then subtracts your mortgage payoff to estimate your net proceeds. It does not include any concessions you agree to give the buyer.
-
Why are the listing fee and buyer-agent fee shown separately?
Because they are two distinct, negotiable fees paid to two different brokerages. Your listing fee is what your listing agent's brokerage charges. The buyer-agent fee is separate, and since the 2024 NAR settlement you choose whether to offer to cover it. Keeping them separate shows you exactly where each dollar goes. See our commissions guide for detail.
-
Does Utah have a real estate transfer tax?
No. Utah has no state or county real estate transfer tax, so sellers here skip a line that costs thousands in many other states. You still pay a small recording fee and prorated property taxes through your closing date.
