Real Estate Investment Scenarios

2020 · React

I met these guys through a Facebook group—SaaS founders with a cool idea for a complementary product and a development team that they couldn’t afford to distract. The tool is a web app to build different residential real estate purchase and sale scenarios so the investor can figure out which deals make sense and then make the case to the homeowner. The logic came from a truly gnarly spreadsheet one of them had developed and used with success.

I’m not a real estate investor, but it’s really useful. If the investor who tried to buy my last house had used this, I probably would have sold to him.

I did the UX and project management and coached my junior developer, who did most of the actual coding. This was a win for me in not doing everything myself.
