I take my max offer price and multiply by 85% first and that is my initial offer.

If you took all the depreciation you should have taken, then multiply that total amount by 25% to determine the capital gains tax due to depreciation.2.

Hey guys,I've been researching the market here in Austin for the last year and it really seems like wholesaling at the usually healthy (ARV (.70)) multiplier hasn't been having the same results.

I multiplied the ARV by 65% instead of 70%.

In any case, when you add in 10% for overages (like many roofers will do), that calculation always came up short for me.These days, for a conventional roof pitch, I'll multiply the length of the house by the width of the house and then multiply by 1.5.

My numbers are almost the same as yours, except the price and rents are multiplied by just about 3X, with slightly higher square footage.

Gross rent multipliers.

Found the average price per sf, and multiplied it by my subject house sf.

So if you figure your area and convert to yards, multiply by 500 and divide by 2000 will give you tonnage also.If you're needing a base you can use a geo textile if you do not want to buy #2 stone (big rock, 2 to 3").
