How We Calculate Colorado Home Sale Costs
Transfer Taxes
CO Documentary Fee: Colorado levies a flat 0.01% transfer tax, customarily paid by the seller.
Source notes: $0.01/$100 (0.01%) state documentary fee. Filed/competitive title rates. CREC 2025 rule update requires written buyer-broker agreements.
Title & Escrow
Title insurance custom: In Colorado, title insurance is typically paid by the seller. Title policies protect against title defects discovered after closing; the lender requires their own policy regardless of who pays. The analyzer's estimate ($500 base + $4.50 per $1,000 over $100K) is calibrated against ALTA / TIRSA filings — real rates vary by carrier.
Closing protocol: Colorado closings are handled by title companies — no attorney required by state law.
Tax Proration & Cycles
Billing cycle: Colorado bills property taxes in arrears. If you sell mid-year, you owe the buyer a credit for the days you occupied the home — using a 365-day denominator (US settlement-statement industry standard).
Closing Protocol
Colorado attorney/escrow fees typically range $0-$500 based on transaction complexity and locality. The analyzer defaults to the midpoint of this range for hybrid states; title-only states hide the field by default and re-expose it in the Advanced Disclosure as an optional override.
Typical Colorado seller closing costs
In Colorado, sellers typically pay around 8-10% of sale price in closing costs — agent commission (5-6%), co documentary fee (0.01%), title insurance (seller-paid), title closing fees, and arrears property-tax proration.
