Due Diligence Checklist
14 steps covering ARV research, inspections, environmental checks, and deal analysis before you buy.
How the Due Diligence Checklist Works
Select a flip property and work through 14 pre-purchase analysis steps. Each item includes expert tips so you know exactly what to look for and why it matters.
- Research comparable sales and determine after-repair value (ARV)
- Inspect foundation, roof, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems
- Check for liens, zoning issues, and environmental hazards
- Run complete deal analysis with purchase price, rehab costs, and ARV
Why This Matters
Due diligence is where profitable flips are made or lost. Skipping a single step — like checking for liens or environmental hazards — can turn a profitable deal into a money pit.
- Catch costly issues before you close (lead paint, asbestos, foundation cracks)
- Verify your ARV with real comparable sales data
- Confirm financing terms and run deal numbers before committing
