Flip Profit After Tax
Property flip taxes are based on your capital gain:
Capital Gain = Sale Price - Purchase Price - Renovation Costs - Selling Costs
Tax rates (US):
- Short-term (held less than 1 year): Taxed as ordinary income (10–37%)
- Long-term (held more than 1 year): 0%, 15%, or 20%
Common selling costs:
- Agent commission: 5–6% of sale price
- Closing costs: 1–3% of sale price
- Transfer taxes: Varies by location
Example: Buy $200,000, renovate $50,000, sell $320,000: Gain = $320,000 - $200,000 - $50,000 = $70,000 (before selling costs and tax)
