Robert Street “How are you adjusting ARV assumptions in today’s market?”
11 February 2026 | 2 replies
With markets feeling more segmented lately, I’ve been rethinking how I anchor ARV during early deal analysis.Instead of relying on a single comp or peak-sale comparison, I’ve been leaning toward:• ARV ranges (low / mid / high) rather than one number• Heavier weighting on the most recent 60–90 day sales• Noting spread between list vs. sold prices in the same pocket• Treating appreciation as a bonus, not a givenI’m finding that even within the same zip code, buyer demand and pricing tolerance can shift block by block depending on condition, financing availability, and buyer profile.Curious how others are handling market data right now:Are you tightening ARV assumptions, using wider ranges, or changing how you comp altogether?

Your background is exactly the kind that turns rough properties into long-term winners. that is correct, I've had to rely on myself to get things done as I'm skeptical of most people. as i been shown through life by  many their intentions don't match actions.solving by doing holds more weight than theory .starting out i will need to learn how to value properties and run numbers, building materials is easy part  people and business strategy is were improvements are neededi am solution oriented and slowly I'm refining my ability to build  rapport and meaningful connections , as i am ambivert.would love to entertain a converstation to see if we can help one other!
