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 $1,039,000. 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: $1,039,000
Selling costs on exitassumed 8.0% of ARV — agent commission plus seller-side closing.: −$83,120
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 FL range ($1,800–$5,000, ~5 months).: −$3,400
Deed recording and transferassumed Typical FL recording and deed issuance cost.: −$500
Holding costs (7 months)assumed Taxes, insurance, and securing the property at ~$1,559/month.: −$10,910
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): −$311,700
Maximum bid: $629,371

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. Governmental liens (municipal code enforcement, some special assessments) can survive a Florida tax deed — check the specific municipality.
