Running Comps - Wholesaling
Hi everyone. New wholesaler here. I was wondering how I figure out the ARV, comps, & estimate repairs of a property. Is there a certain formula? Can someone help me understand? Thanks

Your repair value (ARV) is simply what the property is worth fixed up. Comps are what has sold in an area of .5-1mile. Don't use comps that cross major highways or sub-divisions. Keep them tight. Use Zillow, redfin trulia, MLS, realtors, etc. Estimated repairs can get from contractors. But you're better off just googling questions like this; make youtube your best friend.
