Net comparison. Every headline figure now estimates money kept after the modeled transaction costs and mortgage payoff.
Highest estimated net. Highest Possible Net produces the largest modeled amount after 36 months because it includes avoided costs and the additional time-based benefits shown above.
Timing of proceeds. How much is received initially or later depends on what matters most to the seller and must be discussed before a structure is determined.
The practical tradeoffs often matter as much as the headline number.

This tool provides estimates for educational and planning purposes only. It is not an appraisal, offer, comparative market analysis, tax opinion, legal opinion, financial advice, lending advice, or guarantee of proceeds or timing.
Actual prices, offers, payoffs, repairs, commissions, concessions, settlement charges, taxes, title expenses, holding costs, financing terms and timelines may differ. Availability and suitability depend on the property, homeowner, buyer and clear title.
A flexible sale may involve proceeds received over time. Structure, timing, security, legal documents, financing terms and risks should be reviewed with qualified legal, tax and financial professionals. The depreciation illustration assumes income-producing residential property, excludes the selected land allocation, uses a 27.5-year straight-line recovery period, and applies the selected tax rate. Personal-use property is not depreciable; actual tax basis, mid-month convention, passive-loss limits and depreciation recapture may materially change the result.
The numbers are only part of the decision. Your timing, property condition, financial pressure, living situation, and need for certainty can also affect which options are worth exploring.

Online estimates are useful, but the best option depends on the property, payoff, condition, timeline and your priorities. Chris can review the assumptions with you—without pressure to choose a particular path.
