Yes, fees were included for selling the house, but I did not include capitol gains taxes in the investment calculation.

You should because that can be a big factor in comparing returns between home ownership and equities. You can keep $250k of capital gains on your home tax free, while the lowest capital gains rate you’ll pay when selling equities is 15%. That can be a significant difference in what you take home.
