DealForge (Real Estate ROI Calculator)
In DevelopmentStrategy-based real estate deal-analysis SaaS that models rentals, flips, BRRRR, and creative-finance deals in minutes.
Enter a property once and compare flip, hold, Airbnb, seller finance, BRRRR, and wholesale exits side by side.

Most real estate investors analyze deals in spreadsheets or single-purpose calculators, modeling one strategy at a time. That is slow, uses inconsistent assumptions, and leads to poor decisions. Investors do not just need to know whether a deal works; they need to know which exit strategy works best and what could make it fail.
Built for Real estate investors, house flippers, buy-and-hold and BRRRR investors, short-term rental operators, wholesalers, and small acquisition teams.
The user enters one property acquisition, and the system models seven exit strategies (flip, long-term hold, Airbnb/STR, seller finance, BRRRR, BRRRR repeat, and wholesale fallback), each returning net profit, cash flow, cash required, ROI, capital recovery, risk, and a deal score. A winner engine ranks strategies against the investor's chosen goal and explains why the top strategy wins, producing a primary/backup/emergency exit stack and a 0-100 Deal DNA Score. A sensitivity simulator stress-tests assumptions live, a risk heat map grades category risks, and users can export an investor-grade report. AI explanations are grounded strictly in stored assumptions and calculated outputs.
It proves a suite of deterministic, isolated, testable financial calculation engines for seven distinct strategies plus a ranking layer that weights outputs by investor goal, real-time sensitivity recalculation, and grounded AI narrative that never invents numbers. It also implements subscription tiers and PDF report generation.
This is not a basic calculator. It is a decision engine: enter one property once and instantly compare every exit strategy side-by-side to know the best move before you buy.
