How to read this

These figures describe the Redfin metro of Washington, DC, not a single neighborhood. Redfin Data Center, trailing 12 months through May 2026 (file updated June 2, 2026). Source: Redfin Data Center. Each bar is that one number on the scale under it. It is not a history, an appraisal, or a HouseBought offer.

What you might keep

An illustration with your numbers, not a HouseBought offer.

Listing, after those costs

$572,700

Commission $37,800, repairs $15,000, holding $4,500.

Cash amount you typed

—

No HouseBought commission is taken off this number.

Difference, cash minus the listing net

—

A positive number means the cash amount is higher than the listing net above.

How this works

The listing net subtracts the commission, repairs, and holding cost you typed. The cash column is only the number you type. Mortgages, taxes, and liens are left out of both. The prefilled price is the Redfin median rounded to a nearby thousand, five hundred, or hundred. It is not a value for your house, and it is not a HouseBought offer.

Closing in District of Columbia

A title company or a closing attorney — whichever is usual in that county — prepares the deed and records it. Property taxes are usually prorated to the closing date. The billing calendar for those taxes depends on the county.
