About This Home Selling Cost Calculator

Selling a home comes with significant costs that many homeowners don't fully anticipate. Real estate agent commissions alone typically run 5–6% of the sale price, and additional closing costs like title insurance, recording fees, and transfer taxes can add another 1–3%. On a $400,000 home, that's $24,000–$36,000 in fees before you see a dime of your equity.

This free calculator gives you a clear, honest picture of what you'll pay to sell your home on the traditional market. Simply enter your expected sale price and adjust the commission and fee percentages to match your situation. The results show exactly how much goes to agents and closing costs.

Understanding your true selling costs is essential when considering listing on the market, selling to an investor or wholesaler, or exploring a for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) approach. For deeper real estate financial analysis including financing terms and amortization, try our full-featured Flexi calculator.
