Washington Home Offers: questions before you decide
Compare a Washington cash offer with listing using editable net-proceeds assumptions. Review costs, repairs, holding time, payoffs and written purchase conditions.
Questions and answers
Why compare net proceeds instead of only the offer price?
Net proceeds account for costs you pay to complete the sale and amounts paid off at closing. Different repair, selling and holding costs can change the difference between two headline prices.
Does the worksheet predict my home value?
No. It calculates the assumptions you enter; it does not appraise the property or predict a sale. Use a written offer, local market advice, contractor estimates and an estimated settlement statement to improve your inputs.
What commission percentage should I enter?
Use the compensation you actually negotiate for the listing and any buyer-side amount you agree to pay. No commission rate is assumed or prescribed by this worksheet.
Does a cash buyer pay all closing costs?
Only the written agreement establishes which party pays each cost. Taxes, title and escrow charges, credits and payoffs still need to be accounted for. Put the seller-paid portion in the cash column.
Should I subtract my mortgage in both columns?
Yes, if it must be paid off at closing. Use a current payoff estimate, and include other obligations that reduce proceeds. Do not count the same amount again inside the other-closing-cost field.
What happens to numbers I enter?
The comparison runs in your browser. Its fields are not sent with an inquiry, stored for later visits, or used to generate an offer. Print a copy before leaving if you want to keep it.
Still have a property question?
Inquiries go to Washington Home Solutions LLC. A property review is not an offer or a promise to purchase.
