What the numbers mean if you're selling
Homes bought near the 2006 peak and refinanced since can carry more debt than their age suggests, so check your equity before you plan around a number. Leased and financed solar is common here too, and it has to be transferred or paid off at closing.
In the 55+ communities, sales are often estates or moves to assisted living. The association's resale disclosure and fees are part of every sale.

Questions
Surprise questions.
Can I sell my Surprise house if I owe close to what it's worth?
Possibly. After the loan, liens, and costs, the numbers have to work. If they don't, a short sale or a loan modification may fit better, and we will tell you.
How do I sell a parent's house in Sun City Grand?
The person with legal authority signs: your parent, an agent under a power of attorney, a successor trustee, or a personal representative. The community association's resale paperwork is part of the sale.
