Software for Tracking Capital and Cash Runway Across Multiple Flips
How flippers and BRRRR investors track capital tied up vs cash coming free across multiple deals — and what to look for in runway software.
Updated April 1, 2026
The question that matters between deals is not “what did the last flip profit?” It is “what capital is still tied up, what frees on which date, and can I bid the next one?” Spreadsheet capital models answer that until timing, draws, and multiple LLCs make the model stale.
What cash runway should include
- Cash in / cash out by deal and by entity when you run multiple LLCs
- Purchase, rehab draws, carry, and expected sale or refinance proceeds
- Open rehab remaining — not just sunk cost
- Overlap when two or three jobs are live at once
- A forward view (weeks/months), not only a rear-view P&L
Common failure modes
| Failure | Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Per-deal sheets only | No portfolio total | One runway view across jobs |
| Ignoring remaining rehab | Surprise cash calls mid-job | Tie runway to live budget left |
| Closing date optimism | Bid too early on the next deal | Scenario dates, not hope dates |
| Mixing books with ops | QuickBooks shows history, not bid capacity | Separate ops runway from tax books |
