Direct answer
Score a lead before full underwriting by entering estimated owner equity, verified distress markers, observed seller motivation, and the asking-price discount to ARV. The free Property Opportunity Score combines those four inputs into a 0-100 first-pass read. It does not price rehab, title, financing, holding, or resale risk, so use it to rank leads, not as a buy signal.
| Signal | Example | Direction |
|---|---|---|
| Estimated owner equity | Equity percentage from current value and debt | Profit signal |
| Verified distress markers | Vacancy, tax delinquency, foreclosure, probate, or absentee owner | Distress signal |
| Observed seller motivation | Documented need for timing or certainty | Distress signal |
| Asking-price discount to ARV | Asking price compared with a verified ARV | Profit signal |
Equity + distress + motivation + discount to ARV

Worked example
To score a distressed lead, enter estimated owner equity, selected distress markers, seller motivation, and asking-price discount to ARV. The score does not include rehab or holding costs, so it is a lead filter rather than a full underwrite.
The Property Opportunity Score combines the four inputs into one 0-100 read, so you run repair, title, financing, holding, and exit math only on leads that clear your threshold.
Score a lead before full underwriting by entering estimated owner equity, verified distress markers, observed seller motivation, and the asking-price discount to ARV. The free Property Opportunity Score combines those four inputs into a 0-100 first-pass read. It does not price rehab, title, financing, holding, or resale risk, so use it to rank leads, not as a buy signal.
Enter estimated owner equity, verify the distress markers you select, rate seller motivation, and compare asking price with ARV. Then use the 0-100 result to decide whether full underwriting is worth the time.
A good distressed deal has a real seller or property problem, enough equity or discount to solve it, a clear exit strategy, and margin that survives repair, title, holding, financing, and selling costs.
No. A high score means the lead may deserve faster underwriting, seller discovery, comp review, title review, and repair validation.
Signals matter in combination. Equity, discount, motivation, and verified distress together are more useful than one unchecked label by itself.
