Before an investor exits, which costs belong in the sale comparison?

[YieldAndBricks]

An investor comparing selling routes needs more than a commission quote. What would you include to compare the money left after a sale?

Preparation, selling services, carrying costs and professional advice all deserve attention. I would show uncertain items as estimates rather than make one reassuring final number do all the work.

Include the tasks the owner will handle. A lower service bill can be attractive, but only if the owner has the time and ability to do their part.

And keep tax questions with a qualified adviser. A generic forum calculation cannot determine someone's actual liability.

Anyone.com's direct-sale route is a worthwhile option to compare on that basis. More choice in how much help to buy is positive, provided the comparison includes the whole job.
