Blueprint
HOME VALUE

Home Value Tracker

An estimate with a range, your equity after the mortgage, and the projects you finished on the same timeline.

Your home is probably the largest thing you own, and the only number most people have for it is a guess from a listing site. Blueprint gets an automated estimate for your address with a low-to-high range, keeps each one as history, subtracts the mortgage balance you enter to show equity, and puts your finished projects on the same timeline.

KEY BENEFITS

Why it matters

An estimate with its range

Each estimate comes from RentCast's automated valuation model with a low and a high figure, so you see how sure it is, not just one number.

Equity in one line

Enter your mortgage balance and Blueprint shows the estimate minus what you owe. Your purchase price sits alongside for reference.

Projects on the timeline

Finished projects appear on the value chart with what they cost, from logged expenses or the project's actual cost.

A history you keep

Every estimate is saved, so the chart builds over the years you own the home.

SEQUENCE

How it works

  1. 01

    Add your address

    Value estimates use the property's US street address.

  2. 02

    Tap to refresh

    Ask for an estimate when you want one. Each property can refresh once every 30 days, since values do not move faster than that.

  3. 03

    Read the timeline

    See value, range, equity and finished projects together on the web or in the iOS app.

GENERAL NOTES

Home value FAQ

Where does the estimate come from?

From RentCast's automated valuation model, which estimates value from comparable sales near your address. It returns a value and a low-to-high range. It is an estimate, not an appraisal.

How often can I refresh it?

Once every 30 days per property, when you tap to refresh. Estimates are not pulled automatically in the background.

How is equity calculated?

The latest estimate minus the mortgage balance you enter. If you leave the balance blank, equity equals the estimate.

Do renovations increase home value?

Some do, and most return less than they cost; kitchens, baths and curb appeal tend to do best. Blueprint does not claim to measure a project's effect on value. It shows your finished projects and their cost next to the estimate history so you can judge for yourself.

Does it work outside the US?

No. Estimates cover US addresses only.
