Flipperforce Rehab software opinions requested

Member since 2020 · 4 posts · 3 votes

Hi, I am doing a rehab and consider this a "first" for trying to do it right.  I evaluated a variety of tools, and came across FlipperForce.com.  It looks thorough for SOW and Estimating rehab costs.  It also looks well made for instant use, no special setup.

Does anyone have a positive or negative opinion of this software?

Does anyone like another software that is basically pretty easy to use without a lot of setup?

Thanks.

I started using Flipper Force not too long ago and I was sold very quickly! I just wanted something to track expenses and realized it was SO MUCH MORE! 

Analyze Deals: I thought I already had a great way to do this but their tool has been incredibly helpful and aided me in avoiding deals that would have lost me money. It is very thorough!

Rehab estimator: As a newbie I don't always know how much things cost so this tool is extremely helpful to bid on jobs. I have double-checked its numbers against my GCs and it has been very close every time. The detailed nature of the estimator was surprising but helpful. I thought my old estimates were complete, but this has everything down to door handles! It is easy to use, to adapt, etc.

This is as far as I have gotten in my use of this tool, but those two tools alone are absolutely worth $25/month. Everything else is gravy.

    The guys at Austin Flippers on youtube use it. You can ask them if you want a credible source. I signed up for it and it's great so far, but have not had a chance to actually use it during a flip just when analyzing deals. What I can say is that prior to buying this software I was also paying for a project management app, but now I have everything all in one and it works perfectly.

    I just came across Flipper Force in a Google search when looking for software to help me manage flipping houses. I previously did a free trial for PropStream but didn't get too deep into it. I was hoping it would help me find a distressed home to buy but I didn't give it much of a chance before my trial expired.

    Anyway, has anyone used Flipper Force? I realize this is an older thread but figured I'd ask. I just signed up for a free trial and will post what I think of it in the next few days.

    Hi Brian,

    I'm the founder of FlipperForce, and yes we're recently acquired by Fund That Flip.  I am still running the show for FlipperForce and will continue to be heavily involved in working on the product vision.

    By joining Fund That Flip which is a leading nationwide lender for real estate deals we will have more resources to invest in our software platform and improve our product and services for our customers.  We are already starting to make significant investments in our team and are currently in the process of filling multiple software engineer positions so we can knock out our software roadmap faster than ever. 

    Now that we are apart of FTF we can also provide fast and reliable capital to fund your real estate deals.

    Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. 

    Thanks!

    @David Robertson being web based, how often are construction prices refreshed? For instance, after a hurricane prices go up typically. During inflation prices also go up. Does FlipperForce use estimating data that is refreshed weekly/monthly/at all?

    Hi Craig,

    We do keep our eyes on pricing and update our cost database and templates to adjust for market changes.  We made some adjustments to our pricing earlier this Summer 2022 to reflect some material pricing changes that we have seen.

    With that said, construction pricing can vary substantially based upon many factors including the project location, property type, specific SOW, material selections, contractors used, season of the year, etc.

    In fact, pricing can vary substantially from investor-to-investor and every investor will have different prices they use.  An experienced investor that has flipped hundreds of houses in a market, will likely get better pricing than a new investor and have completely different labor prices/SKUs they use.

    So really it's best to use our estimate templates as a starting point to help you get started.  We have already spent hundreds of hours of our time building these templates with lists of repairs and price ranges to save you time.  

    Once you load in a template, you should review our pricing, talk to your local contractors and and pick out the specific materials you are going to be using.

    For example, our templates list a "vanity" as a line item and include $150 for labor, and $500 for material.  You can certainly find a a builder grade vanity for cheaper than $500 at Home Depot, but you can also spend $2k+ on vanity if you are buying a ultra luxury/custom vanity.

    Our $500 "allowance" for the vanity is meant to be a starting point of what we think is reasonable for an average grade vanity on a typical mid-grade house flip.  If you are doing a luxury house flip in Beverly Hills, you will want to adjust the pricing to fit your specific market and materials you are using.

    Save Your Own Custom Estimate Templates

    Once you review all of the pricing and adjust the pricing to fit your specific market and the level of finishes you will be installing, you can save the estimate as a template so you can re-use your own pricing sheet going forward (instead of FlipperForce's).

    Great tool overall. Especially for the rehab estimate and SOW. Love the feature that allows you to copy the url of the supplies/materials to the material input form which automatically fills in the price & relevant info for the supplies is awesome. This saves a lot a time. It is a game changer for analyzing, estimating and managing flips for SFR and commercial deals. I've been using this for at least 4-5 years and Dave & team have continuously improved the platform from day 1.

    @David Robertson: I know this post is a few years old.  Quick question, does Flipperfoce have a mobile app (iPhone/android)?

    Hi @Dwayne Ghant, I’m not David, however, I use Flipperforce and can say that while it necessarily doesn’t have a mobile app, the website is mobile friendly. What that means, if you aren’t familiar, is th at you can open the website on any mobile device and it will conform to the size of the screen so that you would be able to use it just like an app. It works perfectly!!!!! Hope This Helps

    Last I checked it did not have any, but worth a look now.

    I used flipper force for two years. I enjoyed it but felt it was overkill for underwriting. I use DealCheck for underwriting and QuickBooks online for everything else now. The more I can do in fewer software the better.

    Hey all, I wanted to share a couple of updates to this thread because some of the info is outdated.

    As previously stated, FlipperForce was acquired by FTF back in 2022, but I recently acquired FlipperForce back from FTF in 2024, and I am now once again the sole owner...so FlipperForce is back to being founder-led, and it is our team's daily passion continuing to improve the platform every day.

    We also launched a mobile app in mid-2025 which includes basic functionality for users out at the jobsite to upload Progress Photos, post Project Updates, and scan Receipts.

    I’ve heard FlipperForce mentioned quite a bit among fix-and-flip investors, particularly for its rehab estimating, scope-of-work creation, and project management features. The fact that it doesn’t require a lot of customization before getting started is definitely appealing.

    I’m curious about real-world feedback as well.

    For those who have used FlipperForce:

    • How accurate have you found the rehab estimates?
    • Has it helped keep projects on budget and on schedule?
    • Is it easy for contractors and team members to use?
    • Were there any features you expected but found lacking?

    Also, if you’ve switched from FlipperForce to another platform (or vice versa), what drove that decision?

    It would be great to hear from investors who have completed multiple projects using the software and can speak to its value beyond the initial learning curve.
