Paul Mayers: ~$35k net on a deal he couldn't have done otherwise
Myers House Buyers · Augusta, GA
6 offers in one weekend~$35,000 netDead deal turned paid
We could only pay $80,000 as a fix-and-flip, but the seller drew a hard line at $100,000. That's where the Retail Buyer Program came in. We listed on the MLS at $150k and six offers came in the first weekend. After commissions, FHA closing costs, a new HVAC and a punch list, we still netted around $35k. We'd never have been able to help this seller without this tool in our toolbox.

As an investor deal, the spread never existed. Selling to a retail buyer at market value created enough room to meet the seller's price, pay every cost, and still walk with a five-figure profit — the same math the RBP calculator runs for you up front.
