The short-term rental clip got one question more than any other: what does a BRRRR look like? Same format, same rules: one minute, one deal, nothing cut.
What happens in the clip
The property is a real address picked from the map. Four numbers are typed in, the four that decide any BRRRR: a $165,000 purchase, a $45,000 rehab, $2,950 a month in rent, and a $300,000 after-repair value. Then one click.
- The score. 79 out of 100, rated Solid. The reasons are listed under it: capital recovery, cash left in the deal, cash-on-cash, DSCR and monthly cash flow, each scored on its own.
- Cash back at the refinance. This is the number BRRRR investors care about most. With $96,010 of your own money in the deal, the best refinance returns $103,200, which is 107 percent of what you put in. You get all of it back plus $7,190, and you still own the house.
- Three loan sizes side by side. 70, 75 and 80 percent of the after-repair value, each with its new loan, cash recouped, cash left in, new payment and cash flow after the refinance. The trade-off is plain to see. The 80 percent loan leaves $0 in the deal but cash flows only $37 a month. The 70 percent loan leaves $22,210 in and cash flows $246.
- Real comps. Ten sales and ten rentals nearby on a map. They put the after-repair value at about $361,000, so the $300,000 typed in is conservative. They put rent for a 3-bed, 2-bath at about $1,550 a month, well under the $2,950 typed in. Catching that before you buy is the reason to pull comps.
- Thirty-year wealth. Equity, cash flow and net worth over time for each loan size.
- The PDF. A lender-ready report from the same numbers, one click.
Why the refinance is the whole story
A BRRRR only repeats if the refinance hands your cash back to fund the next one. That is why REIzer leads with capital recovery rather than cash flow. We wrote up how that number works and where the thresholds sit.
Every number in the clip is the engine's own output on that deal. Load the same example, type the same four numbers, and you get the same 79, the same $103,200 and the same $7,190.
