Your assumptions

After-repair value (ARV)

Override the derived estimate with real comps

Rehab budget

You cannot inspect before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition

Known surviving liens

Municipal code enforcement, special assessments, federal tax liens

Target margin — 30%

Required profit as a share of ARV. 30% is a common floor for tax-sale flips.

How that number is built

Provider market estimate of $193,000. This is an as-is valuation, not an after-repair one — enter your own comparable-sales figure if the property needs work.

After-repair value: $193,000
Selling costs on exitassumed 8.0% of ARV — agent commission plus seller-side closing.: −$15,440
Rehabassumed No rehab budget entered — assumed $0. Tax-sale parcels are sold unseen and un-inspected; this is rarely correct.: −$0
Quiet title (required)assumed Midpoint of the typical KS range ($1,800–$5,000, ~5 months).: −$3,400
Deed recording and transferassumed Typical KS recording and deed issuance cost.: −$250
Holding costs (14 months)assumed Taxes, insurance, and securing the property at ~$290/month.: −$4,053
Surviving liensassumed Assumed $0 — not verified. Municipal code-enforcement liens, special assessments, and federal tax liens can survive the sale.: −$0
Target profit (30% of ARV): −$57,900
Maximum bid: $111,957

Before you bid

Rehab is assumed to be $0. You cannot inspect these properties before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition.
Surviving liens assumed $0. TWELVE MONTHS OF TITLE RISK AFTER THE SALE, AND IT PAYS NOTHING. K.S.A. 79-2804b allows an action to open, vacate, modify or set aside the judgment or order of sale within twelve months of confirmation. It is a defect window, not a redemption — the purchaser earns no penalty for waiting it out, so unlike a redeemable-deed state the wait is pure carry.
Kansas assesses by subclass and this entry assumes residential at 11.5%. Vacant lots at 12% are close enough not to matter. Commercial and industrial at 25% and the 'all other' residual at 30% are not: dividing by 0.115 overstates those by roughly 2.2x and 2.6x — the dangerous direction, and 'all other' is a residual that catches more than its name suggests. Agricultural land is assessed at 30% of agricultural income value rather than of market value at all, so a derived ARV there is meaningless. Check the subclass on the appraiser's record before bidding on anything that is not plainly a house or a vacant lot.
