Managing a flip is as important as buying it right. Freddie helps you track your project, model costs, and keep your rehab on budget and on schedule.
Dan White, 20-year fix-and-flip veteran in Northern Virginia, used FreeDealCalc to analyze a $130,000 wholetail opportunity in under 5 minutes. No spreadsheet. No paid software. Just Freddie.


"I've been flipping houses for 20 years and I built this tool because nothing free was actually good enough. Freddie does what I used to do with spreadsheets — but in seconds, for free, for every investor who needs it."
A buyer who purchases this property as a wholetail deal undertakes all renovation work at their own direction, cost, and risk. The seller makes no representations regarding property condition and all sales are as-is. Buyer is responsible for all due diligence, inspections, and compliance with local codes and regulations.
Managing a fix and flip project includes: contractor selection and scheduling, scope of work documentation, draw schedule management, permit tracking, cost monitoring vs. budget, quality control inspections, timeline management, and resale preparation. Freddie helps you model the financial impact of every decision.
Start with a detailed written scope of work and signed contractor agreement with a draw schedule tied to completion milestones. Track every expense against your budget category by category. Authorize draws only when milestones are verified. Maintain your contingency reserve for genuine surprises only.
A draw schedule ties contractor payments to completion of specific milestones — foundation complete, rough framing complete, rough mechanicals inspected, drywall complete, etc. Never pay draws in advance. Typical structure: 10% upfront, then milestone-based draws, with 10% holdback until final completion.
Use a simple spreadsheet or project management tool that tracks budgeted vs. actual by category (demo, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, drywall, flooring, kitchen, baths, exterior, landscaping, soft costs). Update weekly. Freddie can help you model the impact of overages on your final profit.
Many experienced flippers use simple spreadsheets, QuickBooks for accounting, and tools like FlipperForce or CoConstruct for larger projects. For deal analysis during and after the project, FreeDealCalc with Freddie gives you profit impact analysis without the complexity of full project management software.
Get 3 contractor bids. Use a detailed written scope of work — never verbal agreements. Include a 10-20% contingency in your budget from day one. Inspect work before approving draws. Don't let contractors overbuy materials. Address scope creep immediately — any change order affects your profit.
Free forever. No credit card. No spreadsheet. Just Freddie.
