FAQ
Boston fixer-upper questions.
- Are ARVs verified?
- Each Boston listing includes recent sold comps. Your own walk-through and contractor scope are still expected.

- Who pulls permits?
- Buyer post-close. Your GC or you, depending on Massachusetts licensing rules.

Glossary
Key terms for fixer-upper in Boston.
- ARV (After-Repair Value)
- What the Boston property will sell for once renovated. Drives every offer formula; sanity-check it against sold comps within a half-mile and the last 90 days.
- 70% rule
- Max offer ≈ (ARV × 0.70) − rehab. A starting point, not a law; tight markets routinely transact at 75–80% of ARV.
- Assignment
- Selling your purchase contract to another investor before closing. The end buyer takes title; you collect an assignment fee.
- DSCR loan
- Debt-Service-Coverage-Ratio loan that qualifies on the property's rent — not your personal income. The standard way to scale past Fannie's 10-financed-property cap.
