Renovation ROI Calculator
Determine whether your home improvement project pays off. Compare your renovation cost against the expected After-Repair Value (ARV) to see your true equity gain, cost recoup rate, and net ROI.
Renovation returns vary by market, location, and execution quality.
ARV is an estimate, not a guarantee. National average recoup rates are provided
as benchmarks only — consult a local real estate agent for a comparable market analysis
before starting any major project.
