Why This Matters for Furniture Flippers

You bought a dresser for $40 on Facebook Marketplace, spent $30 in paint and new hardware, and 6 hours refinishing it. You list it for $225. Someone offers $180 and wants delivery 30 minutes away. After gas, materials, and time — did you even make minimum wage? You've got 8 more pieces in the garage at various stages and zero records of what you've spent on any of them.

Furniture Flippers face unique challenges: Tracking materials cost per piece (paint, hardware, stain). Pricing deliveries and pickups into profit calculations. Managing Facebook Marketplace leads and scheduling pickups. No clean way to track time spent per flip for accurate pricing. On top of all that, Wave charges $16/month ($192/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median furniture flipper earns $34,000/year. Software at $192/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Sanders and paint sprayer is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
