Built a tool to estimate rehab costs from phone photos — looking for flipper feedback
I've been wholesaling & flipping in North East FL for the last few years and got tired of waiting days and shelling out a few hundred dollars for contractor walk-throughs just to know if a house was worth offering on. So I built an app that estimates renovation costs from photos you take during a walkthrough — line-item breakdown, regional pricing by zip, and a built-in max-offer calculator (ARV − closing − reno − target profit).
It's not a replacement for a real GC quote, but it's gotten me close enough to screen deals before I leave the driveway. Free during beta.
Honest question for the experienced flippers here: what would you need to see in the line-item breakdown for you to trust it on a $50k+ rehab? I'm trying to figure out where the "trust gap" is between AI and a 30-year GC.
