Frequently Asked Questions
What is After Repair Value (ARV)?
ARV is the estimated market value of a property after planned renovations are completed. It is calculated using comparable sales of recently renovated properties in the same area.
How many comparable sales should I use?
Using at least 3 comparable sales is recommended. More comps provide a more reliable estimate. Comps should be recent (within 6-12 months) and similar in size, condition, and location.
What adjustments should I make to comps?
Adjustments account for differences between comps and your subject property — square footage, lot size, number of bedrooms/bathrooms, condition, location, and features like garages or pools.
Why should ARV estimates be conservative?
Conservative ARV estimates reduce the risk of over-leveraging the deal. If the property sells for less than projected, a conservative ARV provides a cushion that protects both the borrower and lender.
