PROCESS
A structured path from question to checklist
Each tool turns a big home decision into assumptions, modeled tradeoffs, and next-step verification prompts.
Enter assumptions
Use your best estimates for price, loan terms, rent, costs, timeline, and goals. You can adjust and rerun scenarios as you learn more.
Review the result
Read the verdict, cost comparison, risk flags, assumptions, and verification prompts together instead of treating one number as the whole answer.
Save, compare, or rerun
Account users can save analyses, revisit older scenarios, and run updated versions as assumptions change.
Verify with professionals
Use the report as an educational checklist before talking with your agent, lender, tax professional, inspector, attorney, or advisor.

READING RESULTS
How to read your result
The strongest use of HomeDecisionLab is not chasing a single score. It is understanding what changed the answer and what needs verification.
Verdict is a guide, not advice
The verdict summarizes the modeled scenario. It is not a recommendation, appraisal, loan approval, legal opinion, or tax advice.
Assumptions drive the result
Small changes in interest rate, timeline, insurance, rent, repairs, or selling costs can materially change the outcome.
Costs are separated
Cash flow, true cost, equity, and net worth are shown separately so you can see which tradeoff is driving the result.
Risk flags show what to verify next
Risk prompts point you toward the documents, quotes, inspections, and professional checks that matter before acting.
