How this calculator works

Net proceeds = sale price − mortgage payoff − all selling costs. Percent-based costs are calculated on the sale price.

Your final numbers come from the settlement statement prepared by your title, escrow or closing attorney.

Formulas

Net = price − payoff − (listing + buyer comp + closing + transfer tax + concessions + other)

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to sell a house?

Selling costs often total roughly 6–10% of the price when broker compensation, concessions, closing costs and transfer taxes are included, but they vary widely by market and by what you negotiate.

Do sellers have to pay the buyer's agent?

No. Buyer broker compensation is negotiable and may be paid by the buyer, the seller, or split. Enter 0 if you will not pay it.
