# How much will I profit or lose when I sell my home?

## Your profit or loss on a home sale is equal to your sales price minus your loan amount and any fees incurred to sell your home, such as paying for a REALTOR.

A home can be valued in many ways such as market value, tax assessment value, cost of building, and capitalization rate. Most people are interested in the market value of the home to know what the net sales proceeds may be when selling a home. [Use our home sale calculator to calculate net sale proceeds and see CapCenter savings](https://www.capcenter.com/home-sale-estimate/quote?hsLang=en).

The market value of a home can depend on many factors, including location, size, condition, and local real estate market conditions. To find out how much your home is worth, you can start by looking up similar properties in your area that have recently sold.  [Use our home value estimation tool to get a free valuation estimate based on public records](https://www.capcenter.com/home-sale-estimate/valuation?hsLang=en). Another way to get an estimate of your home's value is to hire a professional appraiser. This will cost you a fee, but it will give you a more accurate and detailed assessment of your home's value. Additionally, you can also consult with a local real estate agent, who will be able to give you an estimate of your home's value based on their knowledge of the local market.
