How I Analyze Deals in 5 Minutes Flat
Want to know the formula pros use to lock in profitable deals? Here’s my go-to method for determining the Maximum Offer:
👉 (ARV x 0.7) - Estimated Repairs - Your Wholesale Fee = Maximum Offer.
Pro Tip: Always add 20% to your repair estimate as a safety buffer.
Let’s break it down with an example:
💰 ARV: $200,000
📉 70% of ARV: $140,000
🔨 Repairs: $40,000 + 20% ($8,000) = $48,000
💼 Your Fee: $10,000
Maximum Offer: $140,000 - $48,000 - $10,000 = $82,000
It’s that simple! This formula ensures you stay profitable while making strong, competitive offers.
