As a real estate agent, I need to clearly illustrate to potential sellers how their property's condition and needed updates affect its market value, so they can set realistic price expectations.

Workarounds Described

• manually doing a CMA for the property
• estimating each major system cost ($15,000 each for HVAC, electric, plumbing) based on rule of thumb
• calculating kitchen ($15-20k) and bathroom ($3-5k) update costs manually
• having a GC walk the property to provide an estimate
• presenting the data verbally or in separate documents to level set expectations

Implied Software Gaps

• A tool that automatically compiles CMA data and renovation cost estimates into a single report
• A platform that connects agents with local GCs for fast, standardized estimates
• A presentation tool that visually illustrates how deferred maintenance impacts sale price

HomeValue Pro

HomeValue Pro is a mobile app that helps real estate agents quickly generate a comprehensive pricing report for sellers by automatically pulling comparable sales data, estimating renovation costs per major system, and allowing integration with contractors for precise quotes. It transforms the CMA into a persuasive, data-rich presentation that sets accurate expectations.
