Profit divided by all-in project cost—purchase, rehab, and carry.
What is fix and flip ROI?
Short answer: Fix and flip ROI measures profit from a short-term rehab and sale as a percentage of all-in project cost—purchase, renovation, and holding—before taxes.
Inputs
Total cost = purchase + renovation + holding. Profit = sale price − total cost. ROI = (profit ÷ total cost) × 100.

How do you calculate flip ROI?
Flip ROI is (sale price − all project costs) ÷ all project costs × 100, where costs include purchase, rehab, taxes/insurance/carry, and selling costs if you add them.
Is flipping houses profitable?
It can be when purchase and rehab stay disciplined and resale price clears costs; margin compression and timeline risk wipe out profit quickly.
What is a good flip ROI?
Investors often want a healthy margin on capital and time—targets vary; compare to your cost of capital and holding length, not headline TV numbers.
