Net Proceeds Calculator

See how a possible sale price and the costs of selling add up to your estimated net proceeds. The calculator adds HST to the compensation you enter and shows every line, so you can see how the estimate is worked out.

Don't worry if you don't know all the numbers. Fill in what you know and use it as a starting point. You can leave the rest blank and add figures as you learn more.

Your numbers stay in your browser. Nothing you enter here is submitted to HomeWiseman.com.

A price you'd like to work with. You can change it and calculate again.

REALTOR® compensation

Enter the compensation you want to use for this estimate. You can enter a percentage, a fixed amount, or both. Leave a field blank if it doesn't apply. Enter amounts before HST; the calculator adds HST (13% in Ontario, from the Canada Revenue Agency (opens in a new tab), checked September 2026).

Include your expected mortgage payout and any other debts you expect will need to be paid from the sale proceeds.

Any penalty or fee your lender charges for paying off the mortgage early or removing it from the title. Your lender can give you this figure in writing.

What you expect to spend getting the home ready to sell and moving out.

Adjustments on closing

Amounts shared between you and the buyer on the closing date, such as property tax you've already paid. Leave blank if you don't know yet.

Is it a credit to you or an amount you owe?
Other costs

Name any other cost you want to include, so it shows in your breakdown.

What “estimated net proceeds” means

Your estimated net proceeds are the amount left from the sale price after the mortgage payout, selling costs and closing adjustments are taken into account. Until closing, it's an estimate: the actual amounts are confirmed on closing.

What this calculator includes, and what it doesn't

It includes the sale price you enter, REALTOR® compensation and the HST on it, the mortgage and other debts paid on closing, prepayment penalties and lender charges, legal fees and disbursements, preparation and moving, adjustments on closing, and any other costs you name.

It doesn't include:

Figures you may not know yet, and where they come from

How changing a figure changes the estimate

  • A higher or lower sale price changes the estimate directly.
  • If you entered compensation as a percentage, changing the sale price also changes the compensation and the HST on it.
  • Each cost you add lowers the estimate by that amount.
  • A credit on closing raises the estimate; an amount you owe lowers it.

About this estimate

This calculator gives general information for planning. It isn't legal, tax, mortgage or financial advice. Your actual proceeds on closing may differ from this estimate: costs and adjustments specific to your sale may apply, and some figures change up to the closing date. Confirm important figures with the appropriate source before making decisions.

Compensation. The calculator does not suggest or recommend a REALTOR® compensation amount or rate. You choose the figures you want to use for your estimate.

Taxes on the sale. This calculator doesn't work out any tax that may arise from selling the property, such as tax on a capital gain. Whether tax applies depends on your circumstances, for example whether the home was your principal residence for every year you owned it. The Canada Revenue Agency explains the rules, and a qualified tax professional can advise you.
