Why Real Estate Investors Need More Than Just ARV
ARV is the starting point, not the finish line. DealBeast gives you ARV with AI reasoning — plus every other metric you need to decide, offer, and close.
What Is ARV and Why Does It Matter?
After Repair Value (ARV) is the estimated market value of a property after all planned renovations and repairs are completed. For real estate investors, ARV is the cornerstone of deal analysis — it determines how much a property is worth once improved, and directly drives your offer price.
MAO = ARV × 70% − Repair Costs
Maximum Allowable Offer — the most you can pay and still make a profit
A miscalculated ARV can turn a good deal into a money-losing mistake. That's why accurate, transparent ARV calculation — with clear reasoning — is so important.
ARV-Only Tools
Some tools focus specifically on calculating After Repair Value — answering the single question: "What will this property be worth after repairs?"
Useful for a quick ARV estimate, but investors typically need more data to make a full investment decision.
