💰 Wholesaler Analysis Tab (Most Important)

This tab is your command center. It tells you exactly what to offer and how much you can make.

What You'll See

1. Wholesaler Pricing Strategy

Starting Offer: $170,000 (72% ARV - renovations)

Your first offer to the seller. Start low to maximize profit.

Target Offer: $175,000 (75% ARV - renovations)

Sweet spot. Good profit for you, fair deal for seller.

Maximum Offer: $180,000 (78% ARV - renovations)

Your absolute ceiling. Don't go higher than this.

End Buyer Price: $185,000 (80% ARV - renovations)

What your investor can afford to pay. This determines your maximum fee.

2. Wholesaler Profit Scenarios

Your Contract Price Assign to Investor Your Fee Investor's Profit
$170,000 $185,000 $15,000 $22,735 (8.9%)
$175,000 $185,000 $10,000 $22,735 (8.9%)
$180,000 $185,000 $5,000 $22,735 (8.9%)
⚠️ Key Point: The investor's profit stays the same regardless of your fee. Your fee comes from the spread between what you pay the seller and what the investor pays you.

3. Deal Decision Factors

The page provides guidance on:

  • Property Condition: AI assessment from photos
  • Renovation Scope: What needs to be fixed
  • Market Timing: Is now a good time to buy?
  • Comparable Sales: Recent sold properties
  • Risk Factors: Potential issues to watch out for
  • Strengths: Why this is a good opportunity

How to Use This Tab

  1. Review the Pricing Strategy

    Memorize your Starting, Target, and Maximum offers before calling the agent.

  2. Check Profit Scenarios

    Ensure you're comfortable with the minimum fee ($5K scenario). If not, skip this deal.

  3. Read Decision Factors

    Look for red flags in the Risk Factors section. Review Strengths for talking points with agent.

  4. Make Your Decision

    Good deal? Click "Start Deal" to add to CRM. Not good? Mark as "Ignored" and move on.

📊 Expert Valuation Tab

This tab shows how the system calculated the property's value. Use it to verify the numbers make sense.

Key Numbers

AS-IS Value

What it is: Current value of the property in its present condition, no repairs done.

Based on: Comparable sold properties with similar current condition.

Use for: Verifying your contract price is below current market value.

After Repair Value (ARV)

What it is: Value of the property AFTER renovations are completed.

Based on: Comparable sold properties that are already renovated to similar quality level.

Use for: Calculating what investors can pay (their profit comes from ARV).

Confidence Scores

The system provides confidence scores (0.0 to 1.0) indicating how reliable the valuation is:

  • 0.8 - 1.0: Excellent - Many recent comparable sales, tight value range
  • 0.6 - 0.8: Good - Adequate comps, reasonable confidence
  • 0.4 - 0.6: Fair - Limited comps, wider value range
  • 0.0 - 0.4: Poor - Few comps, uncertain valuation
⚠️ Low Confidence Warning: If confidence is below 0.6, review the comparable sales carefully. The valuation may be less accurate.

Comparable Sales

The tab shows 3-5 recently sold properties used to calculate the value. For each comp, check:

  • Sale Date: Recent sales (last 6 months) are more reliable
  • Distance: Closer properties (< 0.5 miles) are better comps
  • Similar Size: Should be within 20% of subject property square footage
  • Similar Condition: For ARV, comps should be renovated like your target finish level
  • Sale Price: Should be clustered within a reasonable range
💡 Verification Tip: If all comps are $250K-$260K but ARV shows $300K, something is wrong. Note the property and inform support.

🌐 Market Intelligence Tab

Understand the competitive landscape and market conditions.

What You'll Find

Days on Market (DOM) Analysis

Shows how long properties typically sit on the market in this area:

  • Average DOM: Typical time from listing to sale
  • This Property's DOM: How long it's been listed
  • Interpretation: Higher DOM = more motivated seller

Active Competition

Currently listed properties in the same area:

  • Number of active listings in ZIP code
  • Price range of competition
  • How this property compares

Market Velocity

How fast properties are selling:

  • Hot Market: Properties sell quickly (< 30 days)
  • Normal Market: 30-60 days to sell
  • Slow Market: 60+ days, buyers have negotiating power
💡 Strategy Tip: In slow markets, make lower offers. In hot markets, be ready to act fast and potentially pay closer to your maximum offer.

🎓 Understanding ARV Concepts

Critical to understand these concepts for successful wholesaling:

ARV (After Repair Value)

Definition: The property's value AFTER renovations are completed to a specific finish level.

How it's calculated:

  1. System identifies the target finish level (basic, standard, premium, luxury)
  2. Finds 3-5 recently sold properties already at that finish level
  3. Adjusts for size, location, and other factors
  4. Takes weighted average = ARV

Example: Your property needs $28K in renovations to reach "standard" finish. System finds sold homes already at "standard" finish averaging $276K. ARV = $276K.

AS-IS Value

Definition: The property's value in CURRENT condition, no repairs done.

How it's calculated:

  1. System assesses current condition from photos
  2. Finds 3-5 recently sold properties with similar condition
  3. Adjusts for size, location, and other factors
  4. Takes weighted average = AS-IS value

Example: Your property is in fair condition (needs work). System finds sold homes in fair condition averaging $210K. AS-IS value = $210K.

Active Comps (Listings)

Definition: Properties currently FOR SALE (not yet sold).

How to use them:

  • Verification only: Check if ARV seems reasonable
  • Market context: Understand competition
  • NOT for valuation: Appraisers don't use active listings
  • NOT reliable: List price ≠ sale price

Why not used for ARV: Properties often sell for less than list price. Only SOLD properties show true market value.

📝 Key Rule: ARV uses renovated sold comps. AS-IS uses current-condition sold comps. Active listings are for verification only, not valuation.

💡 Property Page Best Practices

Quick Review Checklist

  • 📸 Photos First

    Look at all property photos. Does condition match the renovation estimate? Any major issues visible?

  • 💰 Check Wholesaler Analysis

    Review profit scenarios. Is minimum fee ($5K case) still worth it? If not, skip.

  • 📊 Verify ARV

    Go to Expert Valuation tab. Check confidence score and comparable sales. Do comps support the ARV?

  • 🏘️ Review Market Intel

    Check days on market analysis. High DOM = motivated seller = good for negotiating.

  • 🎯 Read Risk Factors

    Any deal-killers? Foundation issues, title problems, neighborhood concerns?

  • ✅ Make Decision

    Good deal? Click "Start Deal". Not good? Move to next property.

Red Flags to Watch For

❌ Low ARV Confidence (< 0.6)

✅ Verify comps manually or get second opinion from appraiser

❌ No Recent Sold Comps (> 6 months old)

✅ Market may have changed. Use caution or find newer comps.

❌ Renovation Cost Seems Way Off

✅ Note property ID and inform support. Get contractor estimate.

❌ All Comps Far Away (> 1 mile)

✅ May not be comparable. Look for closer comps or skip deal.
