Thinking of selling your Acadiana home?

Two questions every seller has: what will I actually walk away with, and what's my home worth? This tool answers the first with real math — and is honest about the second: we won't fake a value. The real number comes from a market analysis Carrie builds by hand. Your mortgage balance and price stay in your browser and are never saved.

1 · What would I walk away with?

Everything here computes on your device — we never see or store it. This is net-proceeds math on a price you pick; it is not an estimate of your home's value.

Pick a price to run the math on. Not sure? That's what a CMA is for — see module 3.

Your real payoff runs a bit above your statement balance (interest to closing day). Lender's payoff letter is exact.

Louisiana commissions are fully negotiable; you set your rate in the listing agreement. This is an adjustable estimate.

Your share of the notary/attorney act of sale, title curative, and recording. Negotiable.

Any closing-cost credit you'd offer + out-of-pocket prep/repairs.

Estimated net proceeds on your example price

—

Roughly what you'd walk away with on a sale price of —. Every line is an estimate that varies by your negotiated commission, your actual payoff, prorations, and provider fees. Your real number comes from a CMA and your closing statement. This is before any capital-gains considerations — talk to a CPA about those.

Louisiana note: there's no statewide transfer tax (a real saving vs. many states), closing is a notary/attorney "act of sale," and property taxes are billed in arrears so you credit the buyer for your share of the year. The homestead exemption is the buyer's future benefit — it doesn't change your net.

2 · Where your proceeds actually go

The line items that come out of your sale price. Louisiana is a little different — a notary/attorney "act of sale" (no escrow) and no statewide transfer tax. Tap any line. all ranges are estimates

3 · What's my home worth? (the honest answer)
How market context here works. Any market figures are objective only — price trends, days-on-market, inventory. We never describe or predict who will buy your home, and never by neighborhood "type," schools, safety, or demographics. In keeping with the Fair Housing Act, Carrie serves all sellers and buyers equally.

Check them off as you go — saved on your device only.

5 · Get your real number — a CMA from Carrie

This tool did the honest math it can. The valuation itself comes from a real CMA: Carrie reviews your specific home, its condition and updates, your lot and flood zone, and the current comparable sales in your part of Acadiana — no obligation, no instant-guess gimmick.

For anything involving a divorce, succession/probate, or taxes, we'll point you to a CPA/attorney — that's their lane, not a tool's.

Thanks! Carrie will pull your real comps and reach out.
The fine print, in plain English. Estimates only — not a home valuation, appraisal, or guarantee of sale price or net proceeds. This tool never generates an automated value; the sale price used is one you chose, and your real value comes from a CMA. Not legal, tax, or financial advice — capital-gains, 1031, and divorce/probate/estate sales go to a CPA or attorney. Commissions are negotiable and not set by law; cost figures are ranges that vary by provider and negotiation — get quotes from a few licensed providers, and this tool never steers you to a specific one. Louisiana specifics (act-of-sale closings, no statewide transfer tax, the required Residential Property Disclosure, flood-zone disclosure, homestead exemption as the buyer's future benefit) are general education — confirm with the appropriate licensed professional. Your mortgage balance and price figures are calculated in your browser and never stored or sent; only your contact details and a short seller summary are sent to Carrie, and only if you check the consent box.
