Excel Formula Question for ROI Calculation
I have hit a wall trying to build a relatively simple math formula to assist in our fix and flip business. We would like to be able to quickly compare deals based on a target ROI of 40%.
I am attempting to flip a formula around and solve for the Offer Amount given a set ROI Goal of 40%.
ROI = Net Profit / (Offer Amount + Buying Costs + Holding Costs) / (Rehab Months / 12)
**Note: Offer Amount + Buying Costs + Holding Costs = Total Investment
I was able to get he formula correct as long as the Rehab Months are not included...see below:
Offer Amount = (Net Profit / 0.4) - (Buying Costs + Holding Costs)
I just can't seem to figure out how the formula changes to account for the Rehab Months.
Anybody out there good with flipping formulas around???
