Why no tax row? Income tax depends on your entity structure, deductions, location, and the choices you'll make with a CPA. Goal Wizard hands you the gross take-home target you negotiate with the brokerage — splits and fees only, deliberately.
The four steps.
Goal Wizard walks you through four screens. Each one isolates one decision — so you can think about it without the rest crowding in.
Set your take-home target
One field. Type the dollar amount you want in your bank account this year. We default to the median agent's number until you tell us otherwise.
Tell us your split
Set your split with the brokerage (70/30, 80/20, capping schedule, whatever). The wizard converts your take-home target into the GCI required to support it.
Confirm commission rate and average sale
From GCI, we derive volume (GCI ÷ commission rate) and closings (volume ÷ average sale price). We pre-populate from your historical data if you have any logged.
Pace the activity
Apply your funnel ratios — closings → signed agreements → appointments met → conversations — and you get a daily conversation count. That's the only number you need to remember.
Goal Wizard FAQs
What is the Goal Wizard? +
Goal Wizard is a 4-step real estate income calculator inside Closing Day. You type one number — the take-home dollars you want this year — and it reverse-engineers the GCI you need, the volume to produce, the closings to make it happen, and the daily conversations required at the top of the funnel.
How does the worked $150K example break down? +
Type $150,000 take-home. With a 70/30 split, that becomes a $215K GCI target. At a 3% commission and a $400K average sale, that's $7.2M in volume across 18 closings. Working backward through your funnel, that's roughly 5 conversations a day at the top to feed enough appointments and signed agreements.
Does the math include income tax? +
No — and that's deliberate. Goal Wizard handles splits and brokerage fees, which are uniform across agents. Income tax depends on entity structure, deductions, location, and decisions you'll make with a CPA. We give you the gross take-home target you negotiate with the brokerage. Tax planning is yours to handle.
What inputs does the wizard need from me? +
Four things: your take-home target, your split with the brokerage, your typical commission rate and average sale price, and your historical funnel ratios (conversations to appointments to signed to closed). If you don't know your ratios yet, we provide industry-typical defaults that you can refine as you log activity.
What does the dashboard do with the goal once it's set? +
The dashboard shows live pace indicators — am I on track for the daily conversation count, the weekly appointment count, the monthly closing target. SmartClose's year-end forecast then compares against your goal so you always know whether your current pipeline can hit the number, or whether you need to feed the top of the funnel harder.
Can I change my goal mid-year? +
Yes. Edit any input — the take-home target, the split, the average sale, the conversion ratios — and the entire activity plan re-derives. The dashboard re-paces immediately so you know what the new daily target is.
