About $36,000 after yoy factor in your tax when you file.

When they distribute it, they will withhold 20% ($12,000).

Suggestion:

Roll over $10,000 into a rollover IRA. Then make the withdrawal from the IRA under First-Time Homebuyer exception.

You will still pay ordinary income tax (state and federal), but will be exempt from the 10% Early Withdrawal Penalty.

Try some other way to finance your house. the tax consequences of dipping into the 401K is just too high IMHO.
