Why this page existsSo you can see exactly what this part of a room does, and what it will not do, before you set one up.

The short answer

The public calculator gives you an estimate. The calculator in your Room saves the possible sale price, mortgage payoff, agent compensation, title and closing costs, tax prorations, and repair costs you enter. Your estimated proceeds appear at the bottom.

What it does

The public calculator gives you an estimate. The calculator in your Room saves the possible sale price, mortgage payoff, agent compensation, title and closing costs, tax prorations, and repair costs you enter. Your estimated proceeds appear at the bottom.

"Start from typical Indiana costs" fills the lines that vary with the usual figures so you are not staring at eight blank boxes. The payoff is never guessed; it stays blank until you type what your lender told you.

The number is drawn again wherever the sale changes it: when you set your price, when an offer comes in, after the inspection credit, after the appraisal.

Type a price. Every cost fills in from typical figures, and your walk-away number moves with it.

How it saves your work

Every figure is saved to your sale's price worksheet the moment you type it, and the list price is written through to the home itself, so the calculator, the listing sheet, and the public page never disagree.

A private minimum you record is saved with the worksheet and isn't included in the sale sheet, public page, or anything you send. That exclusion is covered by product tests.

How you use it

  1. Open the calculator from the seam under the gold button, or from the price step of the pathway.
  2. Type your price and your payoff. Press "Start from typical Indiana costs" for the rest, then correct any line you know better.
  3. Read the number. Change a line and watch it move.
  4. Come back at the offer. The figures are still there, and the offer's credit becomes one more line.

What it won't do

It does not tell you what to price at. It shows what a price turns into.

The typical costs are Indiana's for now. Other states' figures arrive as the state guides do.

Questions people ask about this

Is anything I type here shared?
No. The worksheet is yours. Only the list price is written to the home's record, because the listing needs it.
Does it know my actual closing costs?
No. It uses typical figures where you have not typed one. Your closing statement from the title company has the exact numbers.
