He should be able to give that to you, the sellers estimated proceeds. He should be able to work out all the figures, ask you all these questions, how much do you owe on your property? How much your doc. stamp taxes are going to be. Basically all the miscellaneous charges, what you should expect to bring to the closing table, your closing cost. He should also be able to tell you what you should expect to put in your pocket at the closing table. A qualified Realtor will know how to do this process, and actually a qualified Realtor is suppose to do this and he can do this for you when he’s listing your property and filling out the listing agreement, he should also work all these figures out with you so you’ll know ahead of time and there are no hidden surprises.
