Home Sale Profit Calculator
Estimate net profit from selling a home after purchase price, capital gains tax, closing costs, and agent commission.
Estimate profit when you sell a home
Selling a house involves more than subtracting your original purchase price from the offer on the table. Closing costs, agent commissions, and capital gains tax can materially change what you keep. Enter purchase and sale prices plus your estimated tax rate and selling fees to see net profit and return on purchase price instantly.
Pair this with the Loan Payment Calculator when you are also comparing mortgage payoff scenarios before listing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is net profit calculated?
Net profit = sale price − purchase price − closing costs − agent commission − capital gains tax on the taxable gain. Tax applies only to the portion of the gain above zero using the rate you provide.
Does this include mortgage payoff?
No. This calculator focuses on purchase price versus sale proceeds and selling costs. Outstanding loan balances are separate from capital gain math.
Can I model a loss on sale?
Yes. When the sale price is below the purchase price, capital gains tax is zero in this model and net profit reflects the loss minus selling costs.
