Rehab Budget Planner

Build a detailed rehab budget room by room with 14 standard categories and a built-in contingency slider.

How the Rehab Budget Planner Works

Start with a quick lump-sum estimate or break your rehab down room by room. Toggle between simple and detailed modes depending on how far along you are in due diligence.

  • 14 standard categories: Kitchen, Bathroom, Flooring, Paint, Roof, HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, Windows, Doors, Exterior, Landscaping, Foundation, and General
  • Quick lump-sum mode for fast estimates during deal screening
  • Detailed line-item mode with per-room costs you can add, edit, and reorder
  • Built-in contingency slider (default 10%) to account for surprises

Why Rehab Budgets Make or Break Flips

Underestimating rehab costs is the #1 reason flips lose money. A structured, category-by-category budget with a contingency buffer protects your profit margin before you close.

  • Avoid the "surprise cost" trap that kills flip profits
  • Compare lump-sum vs. detailed estimates to pressure-test your numbers
  • Contingency percentage auto-calculates so you never forget a buffer
