Seller Closing Cost Formula

Closing Costs = (Sale Price × Commission Rate) + Taxes + Other Costs
ExampleIf the home sale price is $300,000, commission is 5%, taxes $2,500, and other costs $1,000 → (300,000 × 0.05) + 2,500 + 1,000 = $18,500

Seller closing costs are calculated by combining commission, taxes, and other expenses. Our calculator automates this for instant, accurate results.
