Methodology

Four proprietary frameworks. Zero AI guesswork.

Every number in the dossier is deterministic — derived from named, citable frameworks built on NAHB lifecycle benchmarks, regional cost indices, and 516+ component-level cost models.

Lifecycle Model™

Maps every major system to its expected service life, regional climate exposure, and replacement curve.

Replacement Curve™

Translates remaining useful life into dollar exposure year-by-year, smoothing for clustered failures.

Reserve Adequacy Index

Stress-tests your sinking fund against simultaneous failures and worst-case cost overruns.

Confidence & Data Quality Index

Scores every input — strong evidence vs. inferred — so you know what to trust and what to verify.
