The real question is why are you over budget? Where did you underestimate costs? Once you know this you can plan for this on your next one. What's the ARV of the property? Being $15,000 over budget is not great, but also not specific to you. Even experienced flippers and BRRRRers go over budget, usually for things that we could not see (behind the walls, bad electric, plumbing, etc.).
