A flip calculator should expose the rehab, carry, financing, and exit assumptions before the deal looks good.

Use this planning page to check purchase price, rehab budget, after-repair value, holding time, taxes, insurance, financing costs, selling costs, and the exit plan.

What a flip estimate should include

Flip math gets dangerous when holding costs, financing costs, selling costs, and rehab surprises are buried. Keep the exit plan visible before chasing the deal.

Payment and cash-to-close control

Use the numbers as a planning view, then confirm taxes, insurance, credits, and program fit before the offer moves.

If the numbers look close, send Matt the address, timing, and concern so he can look at the real file instead of handing you a surface-level quote.

Questions worth asking before you move

Can I use this calculator number as a final approval?

No. Use it as a planning estimate, then verify taxes, insurance, credits, income, assets, and program rules before relying on it.

What should I send after using the calculator?

Send the property price or address, down payment or equity, estimated taxes and insurance, credit concern, and timeline.

Why can the real payment differ from the estimate?

Taxes, insurance, HOA dues, mortgage insurance, credits, lock timing, and underwriting conditions can all change the final number.

Educational information only. Not a loan approval, rate quote, or commitment to lend. Final approval depends on borrower, property, program, pricing, and underwriting review.
