Regarding the sellers cost... I assume you mean the realtors fees. When I calculated my buyouts on several properties I included the realtors fees (7%?) on everything accept the property I was keeping. If you have to sell, it is an actual fee. I apologize I did not read far enough back to see if you are keeping it, but if she wants the sale, its going to cost money to sell it. In my sitch, I included conveyance fees, pro rated taxes, filing fees and capital gains.
I consider myself fortunate, I get to keep the dog. I bought the dog for W, and he really is attached to W but shes not going to take him. I have been doing everything I can with the dog to get him to be "my" dog, and its helping!
Keep me posted on how the move out goes. I am about to go through it myself and I am torn. I want to be there to watch what goes, but I dont want to be there to see it walk out. Very tough situation. I wish you the best!
