## Business Model & Offer Formula
We make money by buying houses below market value, then either:
1. Renovate and resell
2. Rent/hold as investment property
3. Wholesale to other investors

**Typical Offer Range**: 70-80% of After Repair Value (ARV) minus estimated repairs minus our $30k wholesale fee.

Example calculation:
- Home ARV (market value if perfect): $400,000
- Good condition (needs $20k repairs): $400k × 0.75 - $20k - $30k = **$250,000 offer**
- Fair condition (needs $60k repairs): $400k × 0.75 - $60k - $30k = **$210,000 offer**
- Rough condition (needs $100k repairs): $400k × 0.75 - $100k - $30k = **$170,000 offer**
