The calculator
Assumptions, stated plainly
Defaults are editable and conservative: they exist to frame conversations, not replace quotes. Title/escrow pricing varies by provider; transfer taxes follow our county tax explainer (the City of LA adds 0.45%; most Ventura cities add nothing beyond $1.10/$1,000); commissions are fully negotiable and entered by you. Verify every line with your lender, escrow officer, and agent before relying on it.
Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to sell a house here?
Commonly 6%-8% of price all-in (commission you negotiate + taxes + escrow/title + prep), before any capital-gains tax. The calculator itemizes your scenario.
What is Measure ULA?
The City of LA's additional transfer tax on ~$5.3M+ sales (4%-5.5%). Separate cities — Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Westlake Village, San Fernando — are exempt.
