How Q-ARV works

Every number in a deal starts with the after-repair value (ARV).

Stop guessing the one number everything depends on.

Every number in a deal starts with the after-repair value (ARV). Guess it wrong and everything downstream is wrong too: your repair budget, your maximum offer, your buyer's profit, and your credibility the moment a buyer pushes back. Q-ARV gives you an ARV from Quantarium, the same valuation data banks and appraisers rely on, so your offer holds up when it's challenged.

Why it matters

  • Every estimate starts here. Closing and holding costs, your maximum offer, and every exit strategy on the page are built on the ARV, so a better ARV means better numbers everywhere.
  • Hold your ground when a buyer pushes back. When a buyer or seller asks where your number came from, you point to the same data lenders use, not a gut feel.
  • Know the work before you price it. Q-ARV can also estimate what the house is worth today. The gap between as-is and ARV is the work, and it tells you what condition to pick in the MAO calculator.

Steps

  1. Open the property in the Deal calculator and scroll to Q-ARV.
  2. Pick a target condition: C1 (renovated, new or fully renovated), C2 (updated, above average), or both. Each one is a separate order.
  3. Optional: choose the house's as-is condition (C1 to C6), or Add photos (2 to 20 JPEGs) so Quantarium's AI can estimate the as-is condition for you.
  4. Place the order. Results take about 3 to 5 minutes, because this is the same valuation data lenders use.
  5. Use the ARV in the MAO form, and use the as-is condition to choose your Condition and repairs.
  6. Save the property if there's any chance you'll make an offer, so the data you paid for stays with it.

Good to know

  • Before you trust any number, check the house: use Search this address on Google and look at photos.
  • Subscribers get Quantarium data for much less than buying it directly.
