Property Selling Cost Calculator
Selling and buying at once?
Buying and selling at the same time? The order you do it in changes what you can borrow. A broker can tell you which way round works for your numbers before you commit to either.

What this calculator does
Estimates what it costs to sell a property – agent commission, marketing, conveyancing and any styling or repairs – so you know your likely net proceeds before you list.
Reading the result
Enter your sale price and costs. Agent commission is usually the biggest line, followed by marketing. The result is roughly what you will walk away with after the sale, before paying out any remaining mortgage.
Example
On an $800,000 sale, selling costs often land around $20,000 to $30,000 once commission (typically 2 to 2.5%), marketing and conveyancing are added – before you clear any remaining loan.
Frequently asked questions
Is agent commission negotiable? Often, yes – rates vary by agent and area. It is worth comparing a few before you sign.
Do I pay stamp duty when selling? No – stamp duty is paid by the buyer. Your main costs are commission, marketing and legal fees.
What does a conveyancer do when selling? They prepare the contract of sale, handle the legal paperwork and manage settlement.
