selling price

This noun is made up of three parts: 'der Verkauf' (sale), the linking '-s-', and 'der Preis' (price). So it literally means the 'Preis des Verkaufs' (price of the sale).

value
'der Wert' and 'der Verkaufspreis' both have to do with money, but they do not mean exactly the same thing. 'Wert' describes roughly how much something is worth or what material price it has. 'Verkaufspreis' is the specific amount for which something is sold. These words can be confused because a selling price often depends on the value of an item. Still, the selling price can be higher or lower than the real value.
Der Verkaufspreis für die Wohnung liegt bei 280.000 Euro.
The selling price for the apartment is 280,000 euros.
