Offer ceiling tool
The offer is what the deal can survive.
This public version helps you find the ceiling. PropLurk's app goes deeper with lower, at-value, above-value, and counteroffer history so negotiation stays tied to underwriting.
Maximum Offer Calculator

Worked example
Simple enough to check. Serious enough to challenge.
- Supported value: $260,000
- Costs and required cushion: $91,000
Result: $260,000 - $91,000 = $169,000 maximum offer.
The public page is meant to create a directional answer. Before an actual offer, replace each estimate with address-level evidence: rent comps, parcel taxes, insurance quotes, lender terms, inspection findings, and local operating rules.
Why move into PropLurk?
Calculators are useful. Connected deal records are better.
A single output does not tell you what changed, why it changed, what offer it supports, or whether the deal improved after diligence.
