Compare the money you keep

Enter your own expected sale price or written offer, lender-confirmed payoff and seller-paid costs. Enter zero when a cost does not apply. A negative result is a shortfall to address.

Private sale

Enter the price, payoff and costs to compare this route.

Dealer sale

Enter the price, payoff and costs to compare this route.

Formula: price minus payoff minus seller-paid costs. This is not a vehicle valuation. It excludes trade-in tax treatment, replacement-car financing and unentered costs. Compare those separately in the trade-in calculator.
