Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the biggest expense when selling?
Typically, the real estate agent's commission is the largest single cost, followed by the mortgage payoff.
Should I include home staging costs?
Yes! Any money spent preparing the house for sale should be added to the 'Closing Costs' field for a true net profit view.
Are these calculations tax-inclusive?
This tool calculates proceeds. It does not calculate Capital Gains tax, as that depends on your individual income level.
