“Because by mutual agreement they were not required to pay for anything.”

I’m not familiar with that part of history. To be clear, are you saying Britain told the colonies they could take all the crown property before the war?

No, your question in reply 375 was how much did the colonies pay Great Britain after they won their rebellion. And the answer is nothing, because the Treaty of Paris agreed to by both parties did not require any payment.
