What is the BRRRR Method?
The BRRRR method is a hybrid flip-and-rental strategy where you Buy a fixer-upper at a discount, Rehab the property, Rent it to a long-term tenant, and Refinance it with a long-term, low-interest loan.
Buying at a discount gives you the same short-term sweat equity you would earn on a traditional fix-and-flip. But instead of selling for a one-time profit, a BRRRR investor holds and rents the property to generate passive rental income, monthly cash flow, and long-term equity from appreciation and principal paydown. Done well, the refinance returns most or all of your original cash, so you can repeat the process on the next property.
That two-sided payoff, short-term equity plus long-term cash flow, is exactly what makes BRRRR deals harder to analyze than a straight flip, and it is what this calculator is built to handle.

How Our BRRRR Calculator Works:
FlipperForce's BRRRR calculator takes the complexity out of analyzing a Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance deal. It runs the numbers in two phases: first the buy and rehab, where you calculate your sweat equity and the maximum purchase price you should offer, then the rent and refinance, where you forecast your rental income, cash flow, and long-term return. You get the full picture of a BRRRR deal, short-term and long-term, before you ever make an offer.

What is the BRRRR method?
BRRRR stands for Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat. You buy a fixer-upper at a discount, renovate it to raise its value, rent it to a long-term tenant, then refinance to pull your cash back out, so you can repeat the process on the next property. It combines the sweat equity of a flip with the long-term cash flow of a rental.
What is a BRRRR calculator?
A BRRRR calculator helps real estate investors analyze a Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance deal. It calculates the short-term equity and maximum purchase price on the buy and rehab, then forecasts the rental income, cash flow, and long-term return once you hold and rent the property.
How do you calculate a BRRRR deal?
You analyze it in two phases. First, calculate your maximum purchase price and the sweat equity you can build by buying at a discount and rehabbing. Second, forecast your rental income, operating expenses, debt service, and cash flow once the property is rented and refinanced. FlipperForce's calculator walks you through both phases step by step.
How is BRRRR different from flipping a house?
A flip ends with a sale: you buy, renovate, and sell for a one-time profit. A BRRRR deal ends with a refinance: instead of selling, you rent the property and refinance to recover your cash, keeping the property for long-term cash flow and appreciation. You can compare both on the same property using our house flipping calculator.
Does the calculator forecast rental cash flow and the refinance?
Yes. Phase 2 forecasts your rental income across unlimited units, your operating expenses, your refinance mortgage payments, and your monthly and yearly net cash flow, plus your long-term total return over time.
