For Sellers

Seller Proceeds Calculator

The price gets the attention; the closing table decides what you keep. Most owners first run this math on the back of a listing agreement after signing it. Run it before.

The Closing Table

Commission is yours to enter, not ours to assume: quoted rates vary by deal size and broker, and the engagement letter is the only number that counts.

All figures are before taxes. Inputs travel in this page's address, so a scenario can be shared by copying the URL.
