What method do you use to estimate ARV?

**Sorry, meant *REPAIR COSTS, not ARV**

Hi, I’m curious what methods other wholesalers use to estimate rehab costs before pitching to an end buyer? Are you guys getting quotes from contractors? Have a general formula? I’m new and don’t want to underestimate repairs.

As a wholesaler, you are just providing estimates. Find some estimates that work for your area. Get 3 estimates for a small, moderate and major rehab. The amounts could be a percentage of the ARV. The buyer will do their own due diligence with their team.
