What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Retirees are increasingly moving from Connecticut and New Jersey to states such as Florida and those in the Carolinas, a trend being tracked alongside broader U.S. home sales patterns. When these retirees sell property in the Northeast, they must weigh the property taxes of the destination state against the costs incurred during the sale. These costs include commissions, which average 5.7% of the sale price nationally, and potential buyer concessions.
