Season 5 Episode 48: House Flipping 101: How to Estimate Repairs and Make a Smart, Profitable Offer (Part 3)
In Part 3 of our 10-part House Flipping 101 series, we’re focusing on estimating repairs and making a smart, profitable offer. Before you submit any offers, it’s essential to understand your exit strategy and how it affects your budget. We’ll break down how to calculate your after-repair value (ARV), set your maximum offer price, and plan for unexpected repair costs that always come up.
You’ll also learn why an inspector, not a decorator, should guide your repair decisions, how to weigh selling versus renting, and why letting the mat, not emotions, drive your choices is key to a successful flip. Walk away with practical tools to make confident offers that protect your profits and keep your project on track.
