How We Calculate Your Home Sale Proceeds
The home sale proceeds calculator uses the costs of selling a home in your area to estimate how much you could make when you sell your home.
Estimated Home Sale Proceeds
Based on your estimated sale price, outstanding mortgage balance, and real estate fees and taxes, this is the estimated amount you’ll walk away with when you sell your home.Estimated Sale Price
We use the estimated sale price of your home to calculate your net proceeds.* To find out what your home is worth, get a free estimate of your home’s value from a Zillow Agent.Real Estate Agent Commission
These fees can vary. When you sell with Zillow you pay a 2% listing fee, lower listing fee than what other brokerages often charge. Buyer's agents commissions are negotiable, so you can decide how much—if anything—to offer a buyer's agent when listing your home.Savings with Zillow
When you sell your home with a Zillow Agent, you pay a low 1%–2% listing fee.** You may still pay the buyer’s agent fee, which is negotiable and often around 2.5%–3%.Outstanding Mortgage Balance
Your outstanding mortgage balance is subtracted from the estimated sale price to determine how much you can walk away with when you sell. For the most accurate estimate, make sure to use your current mortgage balance.Excise Tax
Excise tax is the tax you pay to transfer ownership of the home to the buyer. This fee is paid at closing; the total amount is based on the home’s sale price and varies by state.Title Insurance
Some states require you to pay for the buyer’s title insurance policy, which protects the buyer from title defects, liens, or competing claims of ownership.Escrow Fee
A title or escrow company handles the exchange of money and documents in a real estate transaction. This cost covers the escrow fees associated with your home sale.Misc. Fees
You may need to pay other fees when you sell your home, like recording fees or homeowners association fees.* Like other estimates, the Zillow Estimate is not a formal appraisal or substitute for the in-person expertise of a real estate agent or professional appraiser.
