How to Use This BRRRR Calculator

Our free BRRRR calculator analyzes the Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat strategy to determine if a deal works. Calculate your max offer, rehab budget, and refinance proceeds.

The 70% rule helps determine your maximum offer: (ARV x 0.7) - Rehab Costs. This ensures you have enough equity for the refinance to recover your initial investment.

BRRRR is powerful for scaling a rental portfolio with limited capital. By recycling your initial investment, you can acquire multiple properties faster than traditional buy-and-hold investing.

Frequently Asked Questions about BRRRR Strategy

What is the BRRRR strategy?

BRRRR stands for Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat. You buy a distressed property, renovate it, rent it out, then refinance to pull out your initial investment and repeat the process.

How do I calculate if a BRRRR deal works?

The 70% rule: Max Offer = (ARV x 0.7) - Rehab Costs. ARV is After Repair Value. If the property is worth $300K after rehab and needs $50K work, max offer = $160K.

What is the 70% rule for BRRRR?

Pay no more than 70% of the After Repair Value (ARV) minus rehab costs. This ensures enough equity for the refinance to recover your initial investment.

How much equity do I need for a BRRRR refinance?

Most lenders require 70-75% LTV on cash-out refinance. If your property is worth $300K, you can refinance up to $210-$225K. Your total investment should be less than this amount.

What are the risks of BRRRR?

Underestimating rehab costs, overestimating ARV, appraisal coming in low, rental income not meeting projections, and interest rate changes can all affect profitability.
