How We Calculate Your Cash Offer
Transparent Pricing and Local Knowledge You Can Count On.
Every offer we make at Destefano Family Homes is built on accurate data, neighborhood insight, and a genuine respect for your property and time. We don’t rely on guesswork or pressure tactics. Our goal is to create a win-win solution that gives you clarity, confidence, and real peace of mind.
Here’s the formula we use to create your cash offer:
Your Offer = [After Repair Value] – Repair Costs – Selling Costs – Profit Margin
ARV (After Repair Value)
This is the price your home could sell for after it's fully renovated. We use local comps in Crystal Lake, Illinois to determine this, comparing similar homes that recently sold in your neighborhood.
Repair Costs
We estimate what it would take to bring your home up to ARV condition. That means you don’t have to fix a thing. We take care of the repairs after purchase.
Selling Costs
These are the expenses we’ll handle when we resell the home. Think closing fees, transfer taxes, utilities during the holding period, and real estate agent commissions on our side.
Profit Margin
As a small, family-run business, we factor in a modest profit so we can keep doing what we do serving homeowners and growing through word of mouth, not big ad budgets.
Real Offer Example for a House in Crystal Lake, IL
Let’s say your home, after repairs, would be worth $300,000.
- Estimated Repair Costs: $35,000
- Selling Costs: $20,000
- Profit Margin: $30,000
Calculation:
$300,000 (ARV)
– $35,000 (Repairs)
– $20,000 (Selling Costs)
– $30,000 (Profit)
= $215,000 Cash Offer
That’s your actual cash-in-hand offer. No fees, no agent commissions, and no deductions at closing.
We believe in showing our work and earning your confidence through transparency. That’s how we’ve been doing business since day one and it’s how we’ll treat you, too.
