How it works
A score for your home, a plan for the year ahead, and a record that follows you.
Homestead does three jobs at once. It builds a profile of every system in your home, scores its current condition, and turns that into a calendar of what to do and when. Here is how each piece works.
Build your home profile
Tell us your address, year built, square footage, and a few details about your roof, HVAC, water heater, and other major systems. Where possible, we infer the rest from public records and ask only what we cannot find on our own. Most homeowners finish in under three minutes.
- Address and basic specs
- Major systems and install dates
- Climate and seasonal context
Get your Home Health Score
We score your home across six weighted categories: structure, mechanical, exterior, plumbing, electrical, and appliances. The result is a single number from 0 to 100 that reflects condition, age versus expected lifespan, and recent maintenance history.
- Six weighted categories
- Condition, age, and history
- Updates as your home changes
Follow your maintenance timeline
Your timeline is tailored to your home, your climate, and what is coming up next. Filter changes, gutter cleanings, HVAC inspections, and replacement windows all land where they should, with cost estimates and a recommended quarter.
- Tailored to your home
- Cost estimates per task
- Quarter-by-quarter view
Keep every document in one place
Drop receipts, warranties, manuals, and inspection reports into the vault. We tag them to the right system, so when a contractor asks for your AC model number it is one click away, not a trip to the basement.
- Receipts and warranties
- Manuals and inspection reports
- Searchable, tagged to systems
Ask the advisor anything
Our AI advisor reads your home profile before it answers. So when you ask whether your roof should make it through another winter, it knows your roof is asphalt shingle, fourteen years old, and was last inspected in March. That context is the difference between a search result and an answer.
- Reads your profile first
- Answers grounded in your home
- Save threads for next time
Methodology
The math behind the score.
The Home Health Score combines three signals for every system in your home, then rolls them up across six weighted categories.
Condition
50%
Current state of the system, age adjusted.
Lifespan
50%
How much useful life remains versus expected.
History
Lift / drag
Recent maintenance lifts the score; missed tasks drag it.
Categories are weighted by replacement cost and risk. A failing roof affects your score more than a failing dishwasher, because that is how your finances actually feel it.
