Your assumptions

After-repair value (ARV)

Override the derived estimate with real comps

Rehab budget

You cannot inspect before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition

Known surviving liens

Municipal code enforcement, special assessments, federal tax liens

Target margin — 30%

Required profit as a share of ARV. 30% is a common floor for tax-sale flips.

How that number is built

Provider market estimate of $10,500. This is an as-is valuation, not an after-repair one — enter your own comparable-sales figure if the property needs work.

After-repair value: $10,500
Selling costs on exitassumed 8.0% of ARV — agent commission plus seller-side closing.: −$840
Rehabassumed No rehab budget entered — assumed $0. Tax-sale parcels are sold unseen and un-inspected; this is rarely correct.: −$0
Quiet title (required)assumed Midpoint of the typical AR range ($2,500–$5,000, ~5 months).: −$3,750
Deed recording and transferassumed Typical AR recording and deed issuance cost.: −$38
Closing contingencyassumed Publication, service and filing incidentals. Not a lien allowance — surviving assessments are parcel-specific and are not covered by this.: −$500
Holding costs (18 months)assumed Taxes, insurance, and securing the property at ~$75/month.: −$1,350
Surviving liensassumed Assumed $0 — not verified. Municipal code-enforcement liens, special assessments, and federal tax liens can survive the sale.: −$0
Target profit (30% of ARV): −$3,150
Maximum bid: $872

Before you bid

Rehab is assumed to be $0. You cannot inspect these properties before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition.
Surviving liens assumed $0. COSL conveys by limited warranty deed and warrants nothing about title. A quiet title or confirmation action is needed for marketability, and title insurance being unavailable is expressly not grounds to cancel the sale.
