Fix & Rent Guide
RPM Partnership System · H.O.U.S.E. Equation
What This Calculator Does
Evaluates a buy-renovate-hold deal — acquire distressed, renovate, hold as rental. Builds equity at acquisition plus monthly cash flow. Core RPM Landlord Partner strategy.
RPM Context: REC sources and structures the deal. RPM Landlord Partners supply capital. Equity Multiple is the primary qualifying metric — target ≥ 2.0x.
Key Inputs
ARV input
After Repair Value — appraised market value after all renovations. Your ceiling.
Purchase Price input
Acquisition cost. Should be well below ARV to create instant equity.
Rehab Costs input
Full renovation budget. "Include in loan" = financed with rehab draws.
Entry / Exit Costs input
Entry: buy-side closing (3–6% of purchase). Exit: selling costs (6–8% of ARV). Set exit to 0 if holding indefinitely.
Gross Rent input
Expected monthly rental income. Use market comps — not wishful thinking.
Taxes, Insurance, OpEx input
Annual taxes + insurance ÷ 12. Maintenance: 5–10% of rent. Mgmt: 8–12%.
Key Metrics
Equity Multiple metric
Primary RPM metric. Target: ≥ 2.0x.
(Equity Captured + Cash Out) ÷ Cash Out
Cash-on-Cash metric
Annual cash flow ÷ cash invested. Target: ≥ 8%.
Annual Cash Flow ÷ Cash Out of Pocket
Monthly Cash Flow metric
RPM minimum: $200/mo.
Gross Rent − P&I − Taxes/mo − Insurance/mo − OpEx
Equity Captured formula
Instant equity at acquisition. Target: $20k+.
ARV − (Purchase + Rehab + Wholesale Fee + Entry + Exit)
MAO formula
MAO LTV% × ARV − Rehab − Wholesale Fee − Entry − Exit Costs
Verdict Guide
✅ Strong Deal
Both knockouts met (Equity Multiple ≥ target AND Cash Flow ≥ target) AND all 3 supporting metrics pass.
👍 Solid
Both knockouts cleared. Two of three supporting metrics pass.
⚡ Marginal
Knockouts pass but supporting metrics soft — or one knockout barely missed.
⚠️ / 🚫 Weak / Pass
One or both knockouts failed. Renegotiate or restructure before proceeding.
Fix & Flip Guide
RPM Partnership System · RPM Flipper Partners
What This Calculator Does
Evaluates a buy-renovate-sell deal. Mirrors the RPM Flip Calculator spreadsheet exactly. Speed matters — every extra hold month eats profit.
RPM Context: RPM Flipper Partners work with a REC. HML funds acquisition + rehab; Gap Funding fills the difference between HML capacity and total project cost. Deal? fires YES when profit clears both Min % and Min $ simultaneously.
Inputs — Deal & Acquisition
TPC formula
TPC = Purchase + Rehab + Wholesale Fee + Closing + Holding
Holding Costs input
Non-loan hold costs (utilities, insurance, HOA) as a flat total. Loan interest is calculated separately.
Inputs — Hard Money Loan
HML Loan formula
min(LTV% × ARV, Purch% × Purchase + Rehab% × Rehab)
HML Interest formula
HML LOAN × Rate × Months ÷ 12
Interest Type
Annual and Straight produce identical results in this model.
Inputs — Gap Funding & Resale
GAP Diff formula
TPC − HML LOAN
Net Proceeds formula
Sale Price × (1 − Realtor% − Resale Closing%)
GAP Equity Share
Toggle ON if gap funder takes % of profit (30–50% typical). GAP Return + ROI display when active.
Key Metrics
Net Profit metric
Net Proceeds − TPC + All $ Costs
ROI metric
Net Profit ÷ GAP Diff × 100
Annualized ROI metric
6-mo deal at 20% ROI = 40% annualized.
ROI ÷ (Months ÷ 12)
Scenario Table metric
Profit at 7 sale prices (ARV ± $30k in $10k steps). The ARV row is highlighted ★.
Verdict Guide
✅ YES!
All 3 thresholds cleared (Min %, Min $, Min ROI). Proceed to due diligence.
⚡ Marginal
One threshold missed. Negotiate price, cut rehab, or shorten hold.
🚫 NOPE!
Below thresholds. Check scenario table for break-even. Restructure or walk.
