A house's home page

One page that shows where the house stands: its stage, how the job is going, key dates, today's work, and what's stuck.

Where it is
A house › This house › Home

Home is the page to open when someone asks “how's Maple going?” It pulls the answer together from the rest of the house.

The header and stage bar for 1418 Maple Avenue.

The header

The cover photo, the address, the strategy and stage, and the facts (beds, baths, square feet, year built). Below it, the stage bar shows Leads, Active, and Portfolio with the house's current stage marked. Owners and admins can click a stage to move the house there.

Status: how the job is going

Status is separate from the stage. The stage says where the house is; the status says whether it's going well.

  1. Step 1: Choose Update status.
  2. Step 2: Pick On track, At risk, or Delayed.
  3. Step 3: Under What's happening, write a line, such as “Waiting on the electrical inspection; rescheduled for Thursday.”
  4. Step 4: Choose Save status.

Everyone on the house is notified. Team members can update the status too, which makes it a quick way for a crew lead to raise a flag.

Key dates

Purchase closes and Sale closes come from Edit property. Rehab starts and Rehab finishes are read from the schedule: the earliest task start and the latest task due date on the board.

Below those, the house's own upcoming events are listed: the inspection, the appraisal, the open house. Add a date opens a new calendar event for this house.

Keep up to four links one tap away: the listing, the shared folder, the county record. Choose Add links, type a Name, paste the Link, and choose Save links.

The deal

Owners and admins see five figures: Purchase price, ARV estimate, Hold cost, Selling costs, and Target profit. A missing one shows an Add link and the note “projected profit is incomplete.”

Edit property

Edit property opens the settings that drive the numbers:

FieldWhat it does
StatusThe house's stage. Sold needs a sale price.
Strategy, Lead sourceHow the house is labelled on the portfolio and dashboards
Purchase price, Purchase close dateThe purchase, and the first key date
FinancingCash, HELOC, or Hard money. Shown on the lender report.
ARV estimate, Target profitThe same figures as on Analysis
Contingency %The reserve added on top of the budget lines
Holding months, Projected hold costHow long you'll own it, and what that costs besides the loan
Selling cost estimateAgent fees, closing costs, and concessions
Sale price, Sale close dateFilled in when it sells
Jurisdiction notesWhich building department and zoning office cover the house

Today's work, who's on site, and blockers

  • Today's work lists up to five tasks that are overdue or due today, yours first.
  • Who on site lists the contractors with a task due today, and warns if one's insurance has expired or is about to.
  • Blockers lists the tasks sitting in the Blocked column.

On the example, Blockers shows “Electrical rough-in inspection.” That's a good reason to set the status to At risk.

Notes, updates, and recent activity

Notes and updates shows the house's pinned note (the lockbox code, the alarm, the neighbour's name) and the latest dated update. Open updates takes you to Updates, where both are written.

Recent activity shows the last ten things that happened: expenses, budget changes, finished tasks.

The cover photo

The first photo you add to a house becomes its cover. To change it, open Photos and choose Set as cover under another one.
