Most Realtors charge 6% to sell your house. Half of that will go to the listing agent and half to the buyer's agent. I usually charge 5%. I still give 3% to the buyer's agent since that is the norm for our area.
When you sell, you will pay $1 per every $1000 of sale price as a tax. So, a $150,000 house will be $150 tax. The seller also pays for deed preparation and the title search. That usually runs about $100. If you have a mortgage, there is a courier fee to overnight the payoff check to the lender. Usually $25-35 per lender.
I just sold 305 Masterson Station the first day on the market for the full price. I am keeping it active for backup offers since you never know if a deal will fall apart. Here is a link if you want to see it:

Where are you wanting to be in Andover? I lived in Andover until about 18 months ago. I love the area. We are still close. The 40509/Hamburg area is my favorite part of town!!
