How much profit do house flippers make?+

Average gross profit on a house flip is $60,000-$80,000 (ATTOM Data). After holding costs, renovation overruns, and selling fees, net profit is $30,000-$50,000 per flip. ROI ranges from 10-30% on invested capital, depending on market and execution.

What is the 70% rule for house flipping?+

The 70% rule: max offer = After-Repair Value (ARV) × 0.70 − Renovation costs. Example: $350k ARV, $50k renovations → max offer = $350k × 0.70 − $50k = $195k. This leaves room for profit, holding costs, and unexpected expenses.
