When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $684/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoice management, a program for jobs, or a invoicing system — most furniture flippers in Baton Rouge stitch together QuickBooks, Wave, Square plus other subscriptions. That's $684/year in monthly software fees. Across five years at today's prices, the total damage is $3,420.
Nexa gives you the ability to exit the subscription trap. Your CRM, invoice management, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — combined into one program. One move books a client. One move generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No third-party glue. No integration tax. It's a lifetime license — eliminate recurring fees the moment you switch. For furniture flippers in Baton Rouge weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
My weekends are sourcing: estate sales, marketplace listings, thrift stores and curbside finds, looking for solid wood pieces with good bones that are cheap because they look tired. I check for wobbles, water damage, veneer lifting and smells before I buy, because some problems aren't worth fixing. Back in the garage, every piece is cleaned and stripped or sanded, repaired with wood glue and clamps, missing hardware sourced, and then refinished, paint for most pieces, stain and a topcoat for the ones where the wood is too nice to cover. Prep is most of the work, and a dresser can take a full weekend before the first coat of paint goes on. Then I stage and photograph it in good light, write a listing with dimensions and condition, and handle a stream of messages from buyers, half of whom won't show up. I track every flip: purchase price, materials, hours and sale price, because a piece that sells for $400 can still lose money once I count my time. Storage is always the constraint, so pieces that don't sell in a few weeks get repriced.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

Open on Reddit →We build a furniture flipper's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a furniture flipper — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
