Educational project tool

Test an ARV and fix-and-flip scenario.

Organize purchase, repairs, costs, timeline, exit, and target margin. The result does not validate ARV, predict profit, or determine eligibility.

Organize the project scenario

ARV − purchase − repairs − closing − financing − holding − exit

Projected gross spread

$37,950

The spread is positive but below the target margin you entered.

Estimated total project cost
$387,050
Projected margin on ARV
8.9%
Estimated break-even sale price
$384,194
Max purchase at target margin
$224,200
Holding costs
$16,800
Estimated sale costs
$29,750

Educational estimate based only on your entries. It does not include every possible tax, cost, delay, or market change and does not guarantee ARV, profit, financing, terms, or approval.

Share this scenario

1. Project basis

Enter the purchase, repairs, closing, and known or estimated financing costs.

2. Time and exit

Test holding months and the sale-cost percentage; delays can change the result.

3. Educational margin

Compare the spread and margin with your target, then independently verify ARV and costs.

Calculator questions

Understand what the result includes—and what it does not.

What does ARV mean?

ARV is the projected after-repair value. It should be supported with comparable sales, scope, and professional judgment; the calculator does not verify or guarantee that value.

What is included in estimated total project cost?

It adds purchase price, repairs, purchase closing costs, financing costs, holding costs for the entered months, and sale costs calculated as a percentage of projected ARV.

Does the projected margin guarantee profit or financing?

No. It is an educational estimate based only on your entries. Costs, delays, taxes, conditions, and values can change, and all financing depends on eligibility, underwriting, and approval.
