📋 BEFORE YOU MAKE AN OFFER ON AN INVESTMENT PROPERTY, CHECK THESE 10 ITEMS:
1️⃣ Confirm the property’s current condition.
2️⃣ Review recently sold comparable properties.
3️⃣ Estimate a realistic ARV.
4️⃣ Get a detailed renovation budget.
5️⃣ Add a contingency for unexpected repairs.
6️⃣ Estimate financing and holding costs.
7️⃣ Research property taxes and insurance.
8️⃣ Calculate your potential profit or cash flow.
9️⃣ Create a primary and backup exit strategy.
🔟 Estimate the complete cash requirement.
Finding a property is only the beginning.
The goal is not simply to get a deal under contract. The goal is to acquire a deal with enough margin to absorb delays, surprises, and changing market conditions.
Save this checklist—and share it with an investor who is analyzing their first property.
