Real Estate Math

A seller wants to net $400,000 after paying a 6% brokerage commission and $5,000 in other closing costs. What must the sale price be?

A$425,532
B$405,000✓ Correct
C$435,000
D$437,500

Explanation

Net = Sale Price x (1 - 6%) - $5,000 = $400,000. Sale Price x 0.94 = $405,000. Sale Price = $405,000 / 0.94 ≈ $430,851.
