Keep the record

Every repair, upgrade, and service in one place

Right now it is probably in your head, or a shoebox of receipts. When did we last service the AC? Is the roof still under warranty? Who redid the water heater? SeattleHomework keeps every repair and upgrade in one place, so you always know what has been done and what is coming up. And when you sell, that history becomes proof for the next owner, the way a full service record sells a car.

Know what's been done

Every repair, upgrade, and service, with the date and who did it. No more guessing or digging through old email.

Never miss what's next

See when the roof, AC, or water heater is getting close, before it fails.

Proof when you sell

A documented home reassures buyers and can help it sell faster.
