Four Flippin’ Boxes
Choose Your Own Adventure
• No two rehabbers are the same.
• Successful rehabbers do have:– Drive to Succeed
– Integrity to Build a Solid Brand
– Discipline to Make Good Decisions
– Mindset to Work Hard and Work SMART
What to Expect from this Class
• This is NOT a plan for creating real estate wealth.
• This is a blueprint for developing your own plan.
Begin with the End in Mind
1. What do you want?
2. 1-3-5 year plan
3. Cash chunking
“The problem is we are consistently inconsistent.”- Larry Martel – KPHO TV5 Reporter
Box #1: Acquisition
Acquisition Topics
1. Strategy (Niche)
2. Analyzing Deals
3. Writing Offers
4. Common Mistakes
Strategy (Niche)
• Target Property
• Target Neighborhood
• Target Price Point
• Target Rehab
My Niche
• Single-Family detached homes only
• Minimum 3/2/2
• Tile Roof – Stucco Exterior
• Valley-wide
• $120,000 - $350,000 acquisition price
• Light to advanced cosmetic rehab
Analyzing Deals• Every investor has their own “rules” for
evaluating a deal
• Most tools are built to help determine the investor’s Maximum Purchase Price (MPP)
• A common rule is The 70% Rule:
MPP = (ARV * 70%) – Rehab Costs
• Most successful investors want something more detailed to help avoid potential losses
THE FLIP FORMULAMPP = ARV – Fixed Costs – Profit – Rehab Costs
• ARV is the conservative resale value• Fixed Costs are all the fixed costs you
incur• Profit is your desired profit on the deal• Rehab Costs are the costs to renovate
Example: 4708 E. ThunderhillMPP = ARV – Fixed Costs – Profit – Rehab Costs
What is our MPP?
ESTIMATING ARV
MPP = ARV – Fixed Costs – Profit – Rehab Costs
Estimating ARV
• Do it like an appraiser would
• Three approaches to analyze property value:1. Sales Comparable Method2. Income Method3. Replacement Cost Method
• For residential property, stick with Sales Comparison Method
What Is Sales Comparison?
• Value based on what similar properties in the vicinity have sold for recently.
• Vicinity = Preferably same subdivision or ½ mile.
• Recently = Preferably past 3 months.
• Similar = Age, Style, Size, Condition, etc
Here’s What I Know:• 4 bedroom homes are more
valuable than 3 bedroom homes to most buyers.
• 3 car garages are more valuable than 2 car garages to most buyers.
• Homes with pools are more valuable than homes without pools to most home buyers.
• Single-level homes are more valuable than two-level homes to most homebuyers.
Here’s What Else I Know:
• Normal Sales - $112.38 $/SF
• Short Sales - $76.58 $/SF
• REOs - $78.42 $/SF
*Source – Cromford Report, 9/12/12
Here’s What I Don’t Know:
• How much more value will a homebuyer and/or appraiser see in a property with these desirable features?
• How much more value will a homebuyer and/or appraiser see in a home that’s not a short sale or REO?
Estimating ARV – An Inexact Science
• Lack of supply
• School District
• Family
• Busy Streets
• Barking Dogs

Range
Step 5: Factoring Demand
• How many active listings for sale in the vicinity?
• How many active listings like this property are for sale (i.e. normal sale, 3 car garage, pool, excellent condition)?
• How many like listings are pending?
• How long were these listings active before they became pending?
Step 5: Factoring Demand (cont.)
• NO active listings for like properties in the entire zip code of 85044
• Only one PENDING listing for like property in the entire zip code of 85044, $275,000 after 19 DOM

DETERMINING PROFIT
MPP = $270,000 – $23,730 – Profit – Rehab Costs
How Much Profit?• Profit Trade-Off:
– Too much, unlikely you’ll get the deal at your MPP
– Too little, introduces risk and lowers your income
• Most investors tend towards 10-20% of resale price, with a minimum
• Marty’s Criteria: 10% of ARV, 15K Minimum
