Projection assumptions
Selling Cost %
Realtor commissions + transfer tax + title fees on sale. Typically 6-9% of sale price.
Why Selling Cost % matters
Selling costs eat into your IRR on the exit. A $500k sale at 8% selling cost = $40k of exit friction. This is one of the reasons long-hold strategies win — you avoid the friction by simply not selling.
