THE FIVE-MINUTE START

Your first auction bid
starts with a plan.

FlipBro helps you price the opportunity and see the work ahead. Start with a car you are considering, then replace estimates with evidence as you research.

Start with the money

Expected sale − all-in cost = profit. ROI is the profit divided by every dollar invested. Your own unpaid time is separate.

Max Safe Bid uses low resale and high repairs while protecting both your profit and ROI targets. A provisional ceiling can fall when unpriced work is added.

Price the actual repair

Use a quick repair budget to start, then build a parts list with freight and materials. Keep low, expected and high estimates in order.

Record actual repairs separately from inspections. An inspection does not automatically turn a DIY repair into shop work.

Follow the named risks

A BUY label is a planning result at the displayed bid. MAYBE / VERIFY means a specific material concern still needs resolution. The main concern and next steps are in the report.

Check title eligibility, relevant structure or safety concerns, and required services before relying on a bid ceiling.

Build a shortlist

Save a car to My Garage, put it in a list, and move on. Reopen it to change assumptions as you gather quotes.

Reports can also be downloaded and reopened as files. Saving requires sign-in. Your plan and research allowance are in Account.

What happens automatically?

Copart import retrieves available listing details and photos. Public search finds comparable asking prices and some part prices. Suggested repair items come from the listed damage categories; missing prices use editable allowances. Photos still need your review. Every repair or cost change updates the deal calculator.
