The difference between a profitable flip and a money pit often comes down to a single number: your purchase price. Professional investors don't guess-they use verified comparable sales, accurate ARV calculations, and the Maximum Allowable Offer (MAO) formula to ensure every deal pencils out before they make an offer.
Our ARV & MAO calculator pulls real market data to give you the same edge as institutional investors, helping you determine exactly what to pay based on current comps, rehab costs, and your target profit margin.
The 70% rule is a quick formula used by wholesalers and flippers to calculate the maximum price you should pay for a property: ARV × 70% - Repair Costs = Maximum Allowable Offer. This leaves room for profit, holding costs, and unexpected expenses.
While the 70% rule is a good starting point, professional investors adjust this percentage based on their market, exit strategy, and risk tolerance. In hot markets, you might work with 75-80%, while distressed properties in slower markets might require 65% or less.
Underestimating rehab costs is one of the fastest ways to kill your profit margin. Light cosmetic renovations typically run $15-25 per square foot, medium rehabs (kitchen, bathrooms, flooring) range from $30-50 per square foot, and heavy rehabs (structural, full gut) can exceed $60-100 per square foot.
Our rehab calculator uses regional cost data and industry benchmarks to give you realistic estimates based on your property's square footage and renovation scope. Always add a 10-20% contingency buffer for unexpected issues.
The best deals rarely hit the MLS. Professional investors build systematic deal flow through direct mail campaigns to absentee owners, driving for dollars in target neighborhoods, networking with wholesalers, and building relationships with estate attorneys and probate specialists.
Paid RHET members get access to owner and absentee owner data, making it easy to identify motivated sellers and build targeted marketing lists without expensive skip tracing services.
Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat (BRRRR) is a powerful strategy for building a rental portfolio with limited capital. The key is to buy below market value, force appreciation through strategic renovations, then refinance to pull your initial investment back out while keeping the cash-flowing asset.
Our BRRRR calculator helps you model the entire cycle-from purchase and rehab costs to rental income, refinance proceeds, and long-term cash flow-so you can identify deals with enough meat on the bone to make the strategy work.
