Wholesalers: Stop Overpaying for Deals!
Are you a real estate wholesaler consistently paying 80-82% of ARV for your deals? While it’s great if you have a robust buyer list that can profit at those numbers, this should be the exception, not the rule. We hear daily from investors who are tightening their buying criteria. They’re actively looking for deals around 70-75% of ARV (all in), and those deals get snapped up fast!
This means you need to crunch your numbers thoroughly before you even pick up the phone to call a motivated seller. It might take a little more time upfront, but the payout will absolutely be worth it.
Understanding the 70% Rule (and Why It’s Crucial)
The 70% rule is a fundamental calculation in real estate investing that helps you quickly determine the maximum price you should offer on a property. Here’s how it works:
This formula provides a 30% margin to cover your profit, holding costs, and closing costs. Many experienced investors even tighten this number further, aiming for a 75% rule to ensure even stronger margins.
By understanding and applying the 70% (or 75%) rule, you’ll be able to present offers that are attractive to serious investors and increase your chances of moving deals quickly and profitably.
