The Only Real Estate Flip Calculator You'll Ever Need (Free Google Sheets Template)
As a real estate investor, I've analyzed hundreds of potential flips. The biggest time sink?
Rebuilding the same spreadsheet calculations over and over.
I finally built a simple 6-input Google Sheets template that gives me profit, ROI, and max
allowable offer in under 30 seconds. And it's completely free.
What it calculates automatically:
- Total Investment (purchase + rehab + holding costs)
- Gross Profit (ARV minus total investment)
- ROI percentage (returns on your cash invested)
- Max Allowable Offer using the 70% rule
The formula that matters most:
Profit = ARV - Purchase Price - Rehab Budget - (Holding Months × Monthly Costs)
That's it. Six inputs, one instant result.
Why the 70% rule matters:
If a property will be worth $250,000 after repairs, never pay more than:
$250,000 × 70% = $175,000 minus $40,000 rehab = $135,000 max purchase price
Get the free template:
Grab it on Gumroad (link below) and have it copied to your Google Drive in 10 seconds.

The paid version ($29) adds 100-property tracking, rehab cost estimator by room, hard money loan calculator, and an investor-ready PDF report. But the free version is all you need to run the numbers on today's deal.
What's your go-to metric for analyzing flips? I'm partial to ROI over 20% with a 4-month max hold.
