What This Means
About Home Sale Profit Calculator
The Home Sale Profit Calculator (seller net sheet) estimates the cash you walk away with after selling a home. It multiplies your sale price by the agent commission rate, adds the closing, title, and transfer fees you enter, and subtracts both of those along with your mortgage payoff to arrive at your net proceeds.
The result is the cash left once the sale settles. It is a proceeds estimate based on the figures you supply and does not compute capital gains tax or any exclusion you may qualify for.
Formula & Mathematical Calculation
Agent Commission = Sale Price × (Commission % ÷ 100)
Total Selling Costs = Agent Commission + Closing / Title / Transfer Fees
Net Cash Proceeds = Sale Price − Total Selling Costs − Mortgage Payoff
Calculation Example
$450,000 Sale ($200k Mortgage Balance, 5% Commission, $5k Closing Costs): Total Selling Costs = $27,500. Net Cash Proceeds to Seller = $222,500.
