A quick guided walkthrough
Inputs and costs
Start with the purchase, rehab, resale and financing assumptions. The cost breakdown shows how acquisition, holding and selling costs reduce the projected profit. Unknown HOA and utilities are excluded in this example.
Explore the cost breakdownThe example inputs
- Purchase price
- $850,000
- Assumed resale price
- $1,147,844
- Rehab budget
- $80,000
- Holding period
- 6 months
- Financing assumption
- 7% annual rate; 25% down
- Loan amortization
- 30 years
All figures are in USD. The California example illustrates a workflow you can use wherever Maison supports property analysis. These figures are not local market averages, lender quotes or tax advice.
Property type: Unknown property type
Historical evidence has not been validated under the same-type policy. Confirm the subject type and revalidate comparables before using it for new calculations or recommendations.
This fictional example needs more information before its assumptions could support a real investment decision.
An assumed $1,147,844 resale produces $76,703 in modeled profit after $1,071,141 of total project cost. This is an illustration of Maison’s calculations, not an appraisal, completed transaction or customer result.
Initial flip ROI = net profit ÷ (purchase price + rehab). Scout uses total project cost for its screening return, so the percentages use different bases.
At asking price you make +$76,703 but ROI falls below the selected 10% screening target.
| Escrow fees | $12,750 |
| Title insurance | $4,250 |
| Inspection | $500 |

For a real property, confirm recent closed-sale evidence, obtain a written renovation scope, and replace every estimated or missing cost with a property-specific figure before relying on the result.
Understand the return basis
The report’s initial flip ROI is 8.25%: modeled net profit divided by purchase price plus rehab. On total project cost, including the listed transaction and holding costs, the same profit is 7.16%. These percentages use different denominators; neither is an annualized return.
No income-tax calculation is included. The example uses estimated property tax and insurance, and leaves HOA and owner-paid utilities unknown. No comparable properties are included or claimed as supporting this fictional resale price.
