Wholesale Real Estate Calculator

How to use this calculator

Enter the after-repair value and estimated rehab, set your end buyer’s rule percentage (70% by default) and the assignment fee you want to earn, then add your marketing and closing costs. The calculator returns your buyer’s max offer, your max contract price, and your net profit — plus a table across common fee amounts.

What the metrics mean

• Buyer's MAO — the most your end buyer will pay — ARV × rule percentage − rehab.
• Max contract price — the highest price you can offer the seller and still leave room for your fee.
• Assignment fee — what you charge to assign the contract to your end buyer.
• Net profit — your assignment fee minus marketing, acquisition, and closing costs.

Frequently asked questions

How do you calculate a wholesale offer?

Start from your end buyer’s maximum allowable offer — ARV times the 70% rule, minus rehab. Subtract your assignment fee and that is the highest price you can put the property under contract for while still leaving the buyer their margin.

What is a typical wholesale assignment fee?

Assignment fees commonly run from $5,000 to $20,000 depending on the deal size, spread, and market. This calculator lets you test a range and see how each fee changes your max contract price and net profit.

What is the difference between this and a MAO calculator?

A max allowable offer calculator gives the end buyer’s offer. A wholesale calculator adds the assignment layer: it subtracts your fee so you know the price to offer the seller and your profit after marketing and closing costs.

Is wholesaling profit the same as the assignment fee?

Not quite. Your net profit is the assignment fee minus your acquisition costs — marketing, earnest money risk, and any closing or transactional costs you cover.
