Most sellers think a $400,000 sale means they’ll walk away with close to $400K — but the real numbers tell a very different story. In this episode, Tim breaks down the five hidden costs that quietly drain your profit and shows, dollar-by-dollar, why FSBO sellers often keep far more than agent-listed sellers.

You’ll learn:

• How the “agent tax” wipes out tens of thousands before you even begin
• What prep costs actually matter — and how FSBO keeps more of your margin
• How deal credits and bad negotiation drain profits (and how FSBO sellers avoid them)
• Why closing costs hit both sides the same — and how to plan for them
• How carrying costs silently punish slow listings — and why FSBO sells faster
• The final bottom-line math showing exactly how much more FSBO sellers keep

If you’ve ever wondered what you’d really walk away with after selling your home, this episode gives you the clearest breakdown you’ll ever see — and the confidence to keep more of your equity.
