How We Calculate Cash Offers in Maryland
If you’re comparing options to sell your house for cash in Maryland, transparency matters.
We use real numbers and straightforward math.
If you're unfamiliar with investor pricing, you can also read our guide explaining how cash home buyers determine their offers.
After Repair Value
ARV, or After Repair Value, represents the market price of your home after it has been bought, renovated, and resold. This value is determined by analyzing recent comparable sales of similar properties in your neighborhood, ensuring an accurate and fair assessment.
Selling Costs
These are the collective fees required to buy and resell your house, typically amounting to around 10% of the ARV. Fortunately, as the seller, you won’t have to pay a single dime in agent fees, closing costs, or taxes. We cover them entirely, ensuring a seamless and cost-free selling experience for you.
Cost of Repairs (COR)
This is our estimated cost to bring the house up to current market standards after we buy it. By selling your house to us, you avoid these renovation expenses and save valuable time.
Return on Investment
ROI represents the profit we take home at the end of the day. We deduct the costs paid to contractors and other expenses involved in buying and renovating homes in Maryland.
Our offers are determined using your house’s After Repair Value (ARV), ensuring that we can present the highest fair cash offer possible. This approach allows us to walk away with a reasonable profit while you receive the cash you need.
We calculate your cash offer by starting with the market value of your house after repairs. We subtract all necessary repair costs and our transparent, minimal profit margin from this. This ensures a straightforward and honest process, giving you the best possible offer for your property.
[Your Offer] = [After Repair Value] - [Repair Costs] - [Selling Costs] - [ROI]
How to Sell a House Fast in Maryland: A Real-Life Case Study
Walkthrough and Assessment
We begin the process by scheduling a walkthrough of your property. During this visit, we bring along our trusted contractor to evaluate the home and provide a precise estimate of the repair costs needed to renovate it.
For instance, take your kitchen in its current state: it may be functional, but could benefit from updates to compete effectively with other homes on the market.
Determine Needed Updates
Next, we’ll compare your home to similar houses in your neighborhood to determine its potential market value. For example, consider your neighbor’s house across the street:
- They renovated their 70’s kitchen with new cabinets and quartz countertops.
- Additionally, they invested in a new roof, updated siding, and modern flooring.
Here’s what their kitchen looks like now:
Thanks to these improvements, their home sold for $300K, showcasing the value of strategic updates.
How We Determine a Fair Cash Offer For Your House
After the walkthrough, we calculate the cost of essential repairs needed to bring your home to its after-repaired market value. For instance, if renovations are estimated at $70K, this figure is factored into determining your home’s post-renovation value.
Here’s what happens next:
- Due Diligence: We carefully review the contractor’s repair estimate and perform additional research to ensure that the numbers are accurate.
- Transparent Offer: Within 24 hours, we’ll provide you with a fair cash offer based on your home’s current condition and its potential value after renovations.
This means you won’t need to spend a dime on repairs or worry about finding contractors—we handle everything for you.
Our contractor provides us with a detailed and accurate estimate for the Cost of Repairs (COR). The more precise these numbers are, the higher your cash offer can potentially be.
We carefully review the contractor’s estimate and conduct our own due diligence to ensure every detail is accounted for. This allows us to present you with a fair, honest, and transparent cash offer within 24 hours.
For example, if our contractor estimates the repairs at $70K, we use this figure as part of our calculation to determine your home’s true value and offer you the best possible deal.
Now We Are Ready To Make You An Offer!
Here are the numbers:
As-Is Value = $190k
ARV (After Repair Value) = $300k
COR (Cost of Repairs) = $70k
Our Selling Cost = 10% x $300k = $30k
Our Profit = $45k
[Your Offer] = [ARV] – [COR] – [Our Selling Costs] – [Our Minimum Profit]
Your Offer = $300k – $70k – $30k – $45k = $155k
Your Offer = $155k
Analyzing Your Offer:
Imagine your house is valued at $190,000 as-is. This means if you listed it with an agent, you might sell it for that price without making any repairs.
However, after deducting approximately 10% in agent fees and closing costs—about $19,000—your actual take-home amount would likely be closer to $171,000. Additionally, this process could take 30-60 days or more from the time your house hits the market, and there’s no guarantee it will sell at that price—or sell at all.
Here’s where you have two clear options:
- Option 1: Sell your house quickly for a guaranteed cash offer of $155,000 and close in as little as 10-30 days.
- Option 2: List it on the market, aim for $190,000, and hope to walk away with $171,000—assuming financing doesn’t fall through and there are no delays in closing.
But what if the Cost of Repairs came in much lower than expected? For example, instead of $70,000, let’s say it’s only $50,000. Suddenly, the equation becomes far more compelling.
As-Is Value = $190k
ARV (After Repair Value) = $300k
COR (Cost Of Repairs) = $50k
Our Selling Cost = 10% x $300k = $30k
Our Profit = $45k
[Your Offer] = [ARV] – [COR] – [Our Selling Costs] – [Our Minimum Profit]
Your Offer = $300k – $50k – $30k – $45k = $175k
Your Offer = $175k
That’s more than what you would net if you had listed it as-is on the market with a real estate agent. Remember, after accounting for agent fees and closing costs, you would only walk away with $171,000.
Simply put, it all boils down to this simple concept:
Your offer will be based on the market value of your house after repairs, minus all the costs required to bring the property to its fully renovated condition. Naturally, we also subtract our modest profit margin to ensure a fair and transparent offer.
