Hey BiggerPockets Community,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit online house flipping and wholesaling software.

Today I'll talk a little bit about two free tools that will make you look like a rock star to your cash buyers. The first is the After Repair Value calculator, and the second is the Comps Adjustment tool.

Putting yourself in your buyer's shoes, there are two questions you have to ask yourself when analyzing a potential property to put under contract.

Can the buyer profit?

First, you need to know if your cash buyers will even consider the deal you're looking at. Does it have enough spread to fit both your AND their profit? Getting an accurate After Repair Value can be accomplished with this free tool that imports comps for your property.

How do we get to Win-Win

Seasoned cash buyers can smell a bad deal from a mile away, but as you bring your buyers win-win deals, they will keep coming back for more.

How do you get to win-win stage? It's easy, take the time to do the research on a property you're putting under contract by performing a comps adjustment on it.

99% of wholesalers will not take this extra step; but I guarantee you, when you do the legwork, and get to the same result as the cash buyer, THAT is a deal worth working.

Run an analysis on a potential property you're interested in getting under contract instantly with the free ARV Calculator and comps adjustment tool by clicking on this link today:

Hi BiggerPockets Community,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of online house flipping and wholesaling software REIkit.

In my previous posts, I talk about my house flipping mistakes and how I overcame them. One way was, of course, by educating myself on what went wrong.

Once I identified how I lost tens of thousands of dollars on my first flips, I went on the hunt for software that could improve my experience and make sure those same mistakes didn’t happen again.

Unfortunately, all of the software I could find was either a downloadable spreadsheet that required constant updates and re-saves, or online software that simply wasn’t powerful enough for the “cover all the bases” analysis that is required by pro investors.

That’s when I decided to build out REIkit.com, addressing many of the limitations of the software that is available, and making sure the analysis tools are as thorough as possible.

REIkit offers four tools that all work together to create a highly detailed analysis, as well as providing the data you need to make the best buying decisions possible:

Appraisal-Quality ARV: Search for comps and calculate a true After Repair Value.

Accurate Rehab Cost Estimates: Create itemized rehab cost estimates without needing a contractor, and know the real cost of your rehab before you make your offer.

Account for Holding Costs: The most comprehensive list of holding costs for you to itemize so that you can be sure that you account for every penny of the project.

Multiple Exit Strategy Analysis & Offer Price Guidance: Fool-proof guidance on what to pay for the property to make the most profit based on your investment criteria.

Premium Data: View 50 data points* that give you the big picture, including Lien History data such as Borrower name and Estimated Owner Equity Amount.

Once you’ve done your analysis:

• Get funded more quickly by sharing polished reports of your deal fundamentals with your hard money lenders.
• Wholesalers can market a property to other investors and get it under contract quicker.

REIkit is the real deal for professional deal analysis, and I take pride in continually improving and adding new features that my customers request. 

Feedback is always appreciated, and the customer support is fantastic.

I invite you to check out more details or try a full free trial of the software to discover all of the tools for your business here:

Hi Everyone,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Real estate wholesalers and flippers today know that finding deals is not as easy as it was just a few years ago, but one thing remains true: real estate is still very much a relationship-based business.

So whether you're driving for dollars, hustling with bandit signs, or setting up lead generation online, you still need to build those relationships.

In this post I highlight 35 real estate business relationships you should build to maximize the number of leads you get:

Hey Everyone,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit online house flipping and wholesaling software based in Los Angeles.

Today I wanted to discuss common barriers to getting accurate property rehab cost estimates for your fix and flips or wholesale deals.

If you've already flipped or wholesaled a few properties, you have some idea of how to approach getting construction cost estimates, and maybe even have a solid process in place for doing so on future flips.

The question is, if you're estimating your own rehab costs without a GC, how much time and effort did you spend in itemizing, quantifying, and estimating costs in a spreadsheet or on paper?

Were you able to estimate reasonably accurate material and labor costs for all of those repair items?

When doing my own flips, I found that my rehab repair items were a pain to type up, sort, and price, and that's why I created the online Rehab Cost Estimator tool.

In the Detailed Cost Estimate section of the tool, you'll find every item you need to price out repairs -- down to the quantity, size, and cost of the nails used for drywall.

Simply browse for the item, enter the quantity, and the tool calculates a material and labor unit cost and adds it to your project list.

The best part is that all of the costs are pulled right out of the latest Construction Cost books by one of the most respected names in the industry.

In addition, they are indexed to a zip code, meaning that the costs you find in the tool are the most up-to-date and accurate for your area.

The online Rehab Cost Estimator Tool is a solid addition to your business - click on the link below for details or to start a full-featured, free and risk-free trial to try it out:

Hey BiggerPockets Community,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Today I'll talk a little bit about two free tools on the site that will save you time and money. The first is the After Repair Value Calculator, and the second is the Comps Adjustment tool.

Like many new investors, when I first started to fix and flip and needed to find a property's After Repair Value, I used a spreadsheet to type up my comps and average their values using basic formulas.

However, my annoyance grew with having to save version after version of a spreadsheet, deleting rows and copying content, and having to manually update formulas over and over.

I created REIkit's online ARV Calculator to make it as painless as possible to create a property analysis, adjust the comps, and save the analysis.

Speaking of adjusting the comps, now for the part where you may save money.

In my original spreadsheets I realized that by just averaging the values of the comps, I missed out on an important step, which was adjusting the comps for features.

If you've ever experienced frustration with trying to find comps exactly like the subject property, you may know where I'm coming from.

It may have even occurred to you that if your subject property has a garage, shouldn't that mean your subject property is worth more than a comp without a garage? The answer is "Yes, absolutely."

It is absolutely crucial to compare, and adjust, for features like beds, baths, garages and pools before you commit to a deal.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Kuba and I'm the founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software based in Los Angeles.

I wanted to let the BiggerPockets community know about two tools that I built out that are free for anyone to use: the ARV Calculator and Comps Adjustment tool, that could save you thousands on your next investment.

If you've ever found yourself in a situation where you were looking for comps as part of your After Repair Value calculations, but everything that was coming back was just not the same as your subject property, you need this tool.

More bedrooms? Less Bathrooms? Pool? No pool? This all matters.

On my very first flip I did not account for the fact that all the comps had a garage, and my property did not.

That was an expensive mistake that shaved $15,000 off the profitability of my flip.

If I had just taken a few extra minutes to adjust the comps, I could have avoided it entirely, instead of finding out months later when it was time to sell.

It's exactly why I built out the free ARV Calculator and Comps Adjustment tool, so that others could avoid the same scenario.

Wouldn't you like to know if you're going to lose money, before you make the deal?

Hi Everyone,

Kuba Fietkiewicz here, founder of REIkit.com online house flipping and wholesaling software, based out of Los Angeles.

Real estate investors today know that finding deals is not as easy as it was just a few years ago.

Properties on the MLS are going for tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars over asking.

This makes finding a deal on the MLS very difficult, although there are still deals to be had if you can find a property that is hugely undervalued.

The alternative to the MLS is to think outside of the box, and utilize every single method, strategy, and website that can possibly net a deal.

Such sources of deals can be as well-known as putting out 'We Buy Houses' signs on every street corner.

Not so obvious methods would be looking at property seized by the IRS or other government real property surplus sites.

That's just one example of how to find wholesale and off-market deals online.

I have compiled a list of 54 other methods, check it out at this link:
