SALE-OPTIONS COMPARISON

Compare the whole picture.

A convenient offer and an open-market sale have different trade-offs. Use your own assumptions to see how proceeds and carrying costs may compare.

Starting numbers are illustrative examples—not typical estate results, property values, appraisals or actual offers. No strategy is guaranteed to net more. Taxes, estate debts and legal costs may need separate professional review.

Selling cost percentages are editable estimates, not a commission schedule. Rental costs should include relevant mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, vacancy and management assumptions.
