How Your Cash Offer Is Calculated
Straightforward framework so you can check the math:
- After‑Repair Value (ARV): Expected value after typical updates for the area.
- Less Repairs & Updates: Roof, systems, foundation, interiors, exterior, etc.
- Less Holding & Transaction Costs: Taxes, insurance, utilities, title, closing.
- Less Margin: A fair buffer to manage risk and keep projects viable.
Thomas walks you through the line items and timing so there are no surprises.
What Helps the Visit Go Faster
- All decision‑makers present (if possible).
- Access to all areas (attic, basement, garage, outbuildings).
- Any known issues or recent repairs (roof, HVAC, plumbing, foundation).
- Your preferred closing date and any constraints (tenants, moves, probate, etc.).
