How to Use the House Flipping Profit Calculator
Follow these steps to analyze any fix-and-flip deal in under 60 seconds.
Enter your acquisition numbers
Input the purchase price (what you're paying or offering) and your estimated ARV. ARV should be based on recent comparable sales (comps) within a half-mile and 90 days — not your optimistic estimate.
Enter your rehab budget
Enter your total estimated repair cost including materials, labor, permit fees, and a contingency buffer. Experienced flippers typically add 10–15% contingency on top of their contractor bid.
Set your holding period and costs
Estimate how many months you'll own the property from purchase to sale closing — typically 4–8 months for a standard flip. Monthly holding costs include your mortgage payment (if financed), property taxes, insurance, and utilities.
Enter closing costs
Buying closing costs typically run 2–3% of purchase price. Selling closing costs run 7–9% and include real estate agent commissions (5–6%) plus title, closing, and transfer fees. These vary by state.
