Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 70% rule in house flipping?
The 70% rule states: Maximum Offer = ARV × 70% − Repair Costs. For a home with $300K ARV and $40K in repairs, max offer = $300K × 0.70 − $40K = $170K. This ensures a margin for holding costs, selling costs, and profit.
What are holding costs in a flip?
Holding costs are ongoing expenses during the flip: mortgage/hard money interest, property taxes, insurance, utilities, HOA fees, and loan fees. They typically run $1,500-$4,000+/month. Shorter hold times = higher profits.
What is a good profit for a house flip?
Most successful flippers target $25,000-$50,000+ profit per flip, or a 15-25% ROI. Net profit margins of 10% or less are risky after accounting for unexpected costs. Time is critical: a 20% ROI in 3 months is very different from 20% in 12 months.
