Tap an example to prefill the calculator with sample values.
Typical starter BRRRR
$180k buy, $45k rehab, $300k ARV
A common first-pass screen for seeing how much cash can be recycled out after the rehab and refinance are complete.
Result: The refinance can recycle a large share of the original cash, but the remaining cash in the deal still matters for the true cash-on-cash return.
Low-cash-left scenario
Higher ARV relative to basis
Useful for seeing what happens when the refinance nearly returns all of the initial cash but the ongoing rent still has to support the new debt service.
Result: Pulling out most of the original cash can look great upfront, but the refinance payment still needs enough rent spread behind it.
