How the FlipScore Works
So, how does FlipScore work its magic? It’s simple. We’ve harnessed the power of data and market insights to create a comprehensive assessment that rates properties on a scale of 1 to 100. Here’s the scoop:
1. Property Magic: FlipScore takes a close look at the property’s current condition. Is it a diamond in the rough that just needs a bit of polishing? You’ll see higher scores for properties with excellent potential.
2. Location, Location, Location: We analyze the property’s surroundings, from schools to parks to that hip coffee shop around the corner. The better the location, the higher the FlipScore.
3. Trend Spotting: Our algorithm keeps an eye on market trends, ensuring you’re investing in a property with upward potential. No crystal ball required.
4. Renovation Revelation: Got an eye for renovation? FlipScore evaluates the possibilities for smart improvements that can skyrocket the property’s value.
5. Beat the Competition: Less competition means more opportunities. FlipScore highlights properties where your flipping skills can truly shine.
6. Counting Coins: Wondering about the bottom line? FlipScore crunches the numbers, projecting your potential return on investment, so you can make informed decisions.

The FlipScore algorithm employs a multi-factor analysis to quantify the flippability of a given property, yielding a numerical score on a scale from 1 to 100. This score is derived from a weighted combination of key metrics, each representing a crucial aspect of the property’s potential for successful flipping:
1. A quantitative assessment of the property’s physical state, incorporating variables that are represented as:
PC = f(A, SI, ML)
2. Geographical attributes are factored in, considering distance to important items and is calculated as:
LA = g(DA, PS, T, LA)
3. Utilizing historical sales data (HSD), price appreciation (PA), and market forecasts (MF), market trends are evaluated, leading to:
MT = h(HSD, PA, MF)
4. Feasibility (F) and cost-effectiveness (CE) of potential renovations are combined to determine the property’s renovation potential:
RP = F × CE
5. A measure of competition density (CD) in the local market landscape is considered:
CA = 1 / (1 + CD)
6. Employing financial modeling, projected return on investment (ROI) is computed based on a number of factors:
ROI = (PRV – (PPP + ERC)) / (PPP + ERC)
Finally, the FlipScore (FS) is calculated as the weighted sum of these components and then fine-tuned to reflect the relative importance of each factor. The resulting FlipScore provides investors with an objective metric to guide their decision-making process in identifying potentially lucrative properties.
