Compare your options
A higher list price doesn't always mean more money in your pocket. Use your own estimates to compare what each route might net. It takes about a minute.
Your numbers stay private. This worksheet runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type here is sent to us or to any analytics or advertising service.
This worksheet is an educational tool. It is not an appraisal, legal opinion, tax advice, or an offer to buy. Actual proceeds depend on real offers, payoffs, title, taxes, fees, and your final closing statement. Default values are rough examples. Replace them with your own estimates.
Beyond the money: what else to weigh
Certainty
Listed sales can fall through over financing, inspections, or appraisals. A direct cash sale usually has fewer contingencies.
Effort
Repairs, cleaning, staging, and showings take time and energy, especially if you live out of town or the house is full of belongings.
Timing
If you need to close by a certain date, or need more time to move, that may matter as much as the price.
