Wholesale / MAO calculator — Vermont
Vermont markets can be small and seasonal. Default rent inputs reflect HUD FMR data—thin comps mean you should widen uncertainty on rent and expense, since this calculator is only as good as your inputs. Same math as the national Wholesale / MAO calculator; numbers are educational—not lender instructions.
Frequently asked questions
- How do you calculate MAO in wholesale real estate?
- A common baseline is the 70% rule: MAO starts with ARV multiplied by your target percentage, then subtracts repairs, closing costs, holding costs, and assignment fee.
- Can MAO be negative?
- Yes. A negative MAO means the deal does not support your target margin at those assumptions and likely needs a lower purchase price or different terms.
- Can I save wholesale calculator results?
- This calculator does not save your session. Use a free Veld account to save deal assumptions, compare scenarios, and track properties over time.
- How should I set MAO in Vermont wholesale deals?
- Start from realistic ARV around $388,000 median home prices, then subtract repairs, holding, and transaction costs before assignment fee. Adjust your ARV multiplier for local buyer demand and renovation risk, not a one-size national rule.
