Is there a way for me to get rough estimate on completion ( I understand that it can vary wildly) before I even put an offer in?  

Hello,I am looking to do remote flips out of state and wondering which software program does investors using such as pop stream or batchleads or anything else is good in estimating accurate ARVs quickly to make an offer?

Completed 7 flips last year with average rehab budgets around $110K per property.One thing that kept burning me early on was inaccurate cost estimation.

Hi everyone,As I’ve been spending more time reviewing deals, I’ve noticed that estimating ARV consistently can be one of the biggest challenges for newer investors.One approach that has helped me is focusing primarily on nearby recent sold comps rather than active listings or asking prices.I usually look for:• Similar square footage• Comparable bed/bath count• Close proximity to the subject property• Recent sales that reflect current market conditionsSmall differences in condition or micro-location can shift value more than expected, so tightening comps first often makes the rest of the deal math much clearer.Curious how others here approach ARV when analyzing potential deals.

Then assign a confidence value to each line item estimate. 

Quote from @Jimmy Rojas: Im a 1099nec recipient, for a traditional home loan i know i have to file  past 2yrs taxes using my 1099s , profit and loss and recent bank statements, back when i was employed i believe i only done my taxes less than a handful of times (yes , i know, i know), went to a generic online site where it gives you an estimate of how much i would i owe uncle sam, the amount was crazy and it was just for 2024, not past years when i was employed, if this amount is even close to what i would owe  for just one year, i dont think im going with it, other than hard lending what are my other options.I’m not really understanding what it is you’re trying to communicate.  

If bids are 20% higher than my estimate, I ask why.How are you currently estimating rehab costs on properties you're analyzing -- are you getting contractor bids first, or do you have a process for validating estimates before you bring pros in?

To compound the termination of this association, BP seems to no longer provide a rent estimation tool.  

In trying to find the right property and market I'm struggling to figure out how to best estimate the cost segregation. 

Currently it’s 340k but needs 160-180k of repair(estimate given by HUD consultant) Will probably need 50k to build out the attic in addition so I can duplex it up.
