How much profit do house flippers typically make?+
According to ATTOM Data, the average gross profit on a house flip in 2025 was about $70,000. But after holding costs, renovation overruns, and selling fees, net profit is typically $30,000-$50,000 per flip — or about 10-20% ROI on invested capital.
What costs do house flippers often forget?+
Holding costs: mortgage payments during renovation ($2,000-5,000/mo), utilities, insurance, property taxes. Renovation overruns (budget 20% extra). Selling costs: agent commissions (5-6%), closing costs (1-2%), and carrying costs if the property sits unsold.
What is the 70% rule for house flipping?+
The 70% rule says: pay no more than 70% of the after-repair value (ARV) minus renovation costs. Example: ARV = $300k, renovations = $50k → max offer = $300k × 0.70 − $50k = $160k. This leaves room for profit, holding costs, and unexpected expenses.
