Sell Your Home in West Fargo, ND
Thinking about selling your West Fargo home? I'm Joseph Haj, a REALTOR® with REAL Brokerage and a listing agent who sells homes in West Fargo and across Fargo-Moorhead. I'm in my ninth year in real estate, I sell 30+ homes a year, and I have 80+ five-star reviews. RealTrends ranked me #2 in West Fargo by homes sold, based on 2025 sales data.
West Fargo is one of the fastest-growing cities in North Dakota, and it's where I'm ranked #2 by homes sold. Buyers come for newer homes and West Fargo Public Schools, and many of them are also touring new construction, so your home has to compete.
What West Fargo buyers look for
- Schools: West Fargo Public Schools, with West Fargo High, Sheyenne High and Horace High, is one of the biggest reasons buyers choose West Fargo.
- Newer homes and neighborhoods: buyers ask most about subdivisions south of I-94 like The Wilds, Brooks Harbor, Eaglewood, Shadow Wood and Southdale Farms, and the Eagle Run area around The Lights.
- Special assessments: newer West Fargo subdivisions usually carry specials, often for 20 years or more, and buyers compare total monthly cost, not just price.
Pricing your West Fargo home
West Fargo pricing comes down to your subdivision, the age of the home, the specials balance and how it stacks up against new builds nearby. Two similar homes on different streets can carry very different specials, so I build your price from closed sales in your own subdivision and show buyers the full monthly picture up front.
Across the Fargo area in September 2026, the median home sold in 29 days, and homes sold for 99.2% of their final list price but only 98.1% of their original price. Pricing right from the start is how you avoid price cuts. See my Fargo housing market update.
What it costs to sell in West Fargo
West Fargo is in North Dakota, which has no real estate transfer tax. Sellers usually pay agent commission, title and closing fees, their share of prorated property taxes, and any repairs or credits agreed to with the buyer. Remaining special assessments are usually paid off or credited at closing, depending on the contract. Read what it costs to sell a house in Fargo-Moorhead.
