Wholesaling is a numbers game played on a tight margin. You put a distressed property under contract at a price low enough that a cash-buying investor will still profit after you take your fee — then you assign that contract for a spread. Get the math wrong and the deal dies on your buyer's desk; get it right and you collect an assignment fee without ever owning the property. A reliable wholesale calculator like Arvo gives you the two numbers that decide every deal: the After Repair Value and the maximum allowable offer.
Even though you'll never renovate the house, the After Repair Value is your anchor, because it's what your end buyer (a flipper or landlord) is solving for. ARV comes from recent comparable sales of renovated homes near the property. The more defensible your ARV and repair estimate, the more credible your deal package — and the faster a cash buyer says yes. Arvo pulls live comps and an AI repair estimate so your numbers hold up to a buyer's scrutiny.
Your offer to the seller has to leave room for two parties to profit: your cash buyer and you. Start from the buyer's classic 70% rule, then subtract your own assignment fee:
That final number is the most you can offer the seller and still deliver a deal your buyer will take. Offer above it and the spread vanishes; the property sits and your earnest money is at risk.
| After Repair Value (ARV) | $300,000 |
| Estimated repairs | $50,000 |
| Buyer's max price (70% rule) | $160,000 |
| Your target assignment fee | −$15,000 |
| Your maximum offer to seller | $145,000 |
Lock the property at $145,000 or below, assign the contract to your cash buyer for $160,000, and the $15,000 spread is your fee. The deeper the discount you negotiate below the MAO, the larger your margin — or the more cushion you have to move the deal quickly.
There are two ways to get paid. With an assignment, you transfer your purchase contract to the end buyer for a fee — fastest and cheapest, but the fee is visible on the closing statement. With a double close, you actually buy and immediately resell, keeping your spread private; it costs two sets of closing fees but is useful on large spreads or where assignments are restricted. Either way, the underwriting is identical — it all comes back to ARV, repairs, and MAO.
The best wholesalers build a cash buyers list first and reverse-engineer their criteria — the zip codes, price points, and property types their buyers actually want. A clean deal package with verified comps, a credible repair scope, and clear profit math is what gets a buyer to commit before your inspection period ends. Arvo's Pro plan generates exactly that package as a shareable PDF. See a full sample deal report or analyze your first wholesale deal free.
