Your Walk-Away Number
What you would keep after you sell. If you have wondered whether you can afford to move, start here.
Right-Size Your Home
Sell this one, buy the next one. See the cash you would carry over and what your new payment could be, whether you are moving up or scaling down.
Mortgage Payment
Your full monthly payment: the loan, property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and HOA dues.
How Much Home Can I Afford?
A starting point for your price range, from your income and debts. A lender sets the real number.
Texas Property Tax
Texas has no state income tax, so property tax carries the load. Estimate your bill with the homestead and disabled veteran exemptions.
VA Loan Payment
For veterans and service members: the funding fee, the loan and the monthly payment. VA loans carry no monthly mortgage insurance.
These are estimates from the numbers you enter, for planning only. They are not an appraisal, a loan offer, or legal or tax advice. Rates, fees and exemptions change; your lender, title company and appraisal district have the final word. Texas exemption amounts checked with the Texas Comptroller, and VA funding fees with the VA, in October 2026.
Questions we hear
How do I figure out what I would walk away with when I sell my house in Texas?
Start with the price you expect, then subtract your loan payoffs, the commissions you agree to, title and closing fees, your share of this year’s property taxes and any repairs or credits to the buyer. The Walk-Away Number tab does that math with your own figures.
Why do Texas sellers pay part of this year’s property taxes at closing?
Texas property taxes are billed for the whole year and paid at the end of it. At closing the seller credits the buyer for the days the seller owned the home, and the buyer pays the full bill when it comes due.
Does a Texas homestead exemption lower my property tax?
Yes. School districts must exempt $140,000 of a homestead’s value, plus $60,000 more if you are 65 or older or disabled. Disabled veterans get a further exemption based on their rating, and a 100% rating exempts the homestead entirely.
