House Net Proceeds Calculator

This calculator is a tool to help homeowners estimate the net proceeds (the amount of money the owner will receive) from the sale of their home.

House Net estimates the net proceeds you will receive from the sale of your home. This app is primarily for people who are selling their primary residence after owning and living in the house for at least 2 years. You enter the home sale price, original purchase price, cost of capital upgrades, realtor commission rate, and federal/state tax rates. You enter your mortgage payoff balance, HELOC balance, seller closing costs, any buyer incentives you are offering, and estimated moving costs. You answer questions to determine whether you qualify for the IRS Section 121 exclusion. The app calculates the IRS exclusion amount based on the inputs. Then the app calculates the gross profit for the sale and subtracts the IRS exclusion amount (if any) before the tax calculation. Then it calculates the federal capital gains tax on this amount. The state tax is calculated based on info provided by the user. Then it calculates and displays the net amount the seller should receive after taxes, mortgage payoff and expenses are paid.
