Simple Formula For Calculating Selling Price For a renovation to be profitable you must add a margin on every dollar of cost you spend. This margin must cover purchase and sale costs, interest, loan establishment fees as well as delivering your desired profit too. A handy formula for cost estimation on reno projects to calculate the desired selling price that you'll need to achieve a 10% target profit from a renovation project. The formula is: Desired Selling Price = Unrenovated Purchase Price x 1.33 So if you had a property that you purchased for $200K, and your desired profit was $20K, the numbers would be: Desired Selling Price = $200K x 1.33 = $266K Therefore, you'd need to sell your final renovated property for $66K more than you paid for it to achieve a target profit of $20K (or 10% of the purchase price). To understand this formula, let's break down the $66K:
- $10K (or 5%) would be swallowed up in acquisition costs (stamp duty, legals, etc.)
- $20K (or 10%) would be budgeted for the actual costs of renovation
- $8K (or 4%) would represent your holding costs (for interest costs, rates and utilities)
- $8K (or 4%) would be lost in agents fees and legals upon selling.
- And finally... the remaining $20K (or 10%) is what's left over for your before-tax profit for doing all the hard work in the deal!  More Property Investing Advice
