How we handle your request ↗

A SMALL CHANGE / A DIFFERENT VIEW

The sale closes $25,000 lower

Net settlement cash: negative means owed

Current scenario$146,500
Changed assumption$122,250

One assumption changes; everything else stays the same. This is a stress scenario, not a forecast.

READ THE RESULT

What the numbers are telling you.

  1. The payoff statement can include interest and charges beyond the principal balance. Enter its dated amount.
  2. Positive tax proration is a seller debit; a negative entry is a credit. No local proration rule is assumed.
  3. A later escrow refund cannot cover a cash shortfall at the closing table.
A GOOD QUESTION

Are sale proceeds the same as taxable profit?

No. This is a cash settlement model. Purchase basis, improvements, depreciation, exemptions and taxes are not determined here. Keep already-paid costs and expected later refunds outside closing, then reconcile all charges with the actual settlement documents.

OPEN METHODS / BETTER QUESTIONS

Understand what the number means.

The calculation

Subtract percentage and fixed closing charges, buyer credits, entered tax proration and lien payoffs from sale price. A positive tax proration is a debit and a negative one is a credit. Pre-sale spending and an expected later escrow refund are shown separately from settlement cash.

Before acting on the result

Use actual agreed charges and a dated lender payoff statement, not principal balance alone. An expected refund is not guaranteed or available to fund closing. No capital-gains tax, selling-cost rule, title tariff, commission, tax proration or taxable profit is inferred. Do not include an already-paid item in closing deductions again.

Use actual property documents, matching lender estimates and qualified advice where needed. No calculator, API or MCP tool here issues an approval or guarantees a rate.
