About the Seller Net Sheet Calculator
Your net proceeds are the sale price minus the mortgage payoff and selling costs: agent commission, closing costs, any transfer tax, repairs or credits to the buyer, and prorated property tax or HOA dues. Ask your lender for an exact payoff quote, which includes interest to the payoff date. Capital gains tax may also apply.
The formula
Net = sale price − payoff − commission − closing costs − transfer tax − credits − other
Worked example
Example: Estimated net proceeds = $219,730
- Inputs: Sale price: $550,000; Mortgage payoff: $280,000; Agent commission: 6%; Seller closing costs: 1.7 % of price; Transfer tax / stamp duty: 0.44%; Repairs and buyer credits: $5,500; Other (HOA, prorated tax, liens): $0.
- Formula: Net = sale price − payoff − commission − closing costs − transfer tax − credits − other
- Result: Estimated net proceeds = $219,730
Questions people ask
Is the payoff the same as my balance?
No, it adds daily interest and fees to the closing date.
Do I pay tax on the profit?
Possibly; many countries exempt a main home within limits (US: $250,000 / $500,000 of gain).
