How it works

From scattered records to an evidence-led file

The workflow is deliberate. Each step moves a property from unverified claims toward a clear, documented record.

  1. 1

    Enter the property

    Start with an address and your relationship to the property. HomeTruth opens a dedicated evidence file for that property.

  2. 2

    Add available documents

    Upload disclosures, inspection reports, permits, invoices, warranties, and photographs. Each document is organized by type, date, and source.

  3. 3

    Extract important claims

    Key statements are pulled out as claims, from the roof age to the presence of a permit. In later phases this extraction is assisted and always labeled for human review.

  4. 4

    Match claims to evidence

    Each claim is held next to the documents that support it and assigned an evidence status, from verified to unknown.

  5. 5

    Identify missing or conflicting information

    Claims without support are marked unknown. Records that disagree are marked contradicted, with both sources shown side by side.

  6. 6

    Review the property timeline

    Events are placed on a chronological black-box record, each keeping its source and status, so the property history reads clearly.

  7. 7

    Understand ownership-cost exposure

    Documented system ages and open findings become a five-year planning range, with the assumptions behind every figure shown in the open.

  8. 8

    Generate the HomeTruth Property Evidence Report

    The file becomes a structured, shareable report that summarizes what is proven, what is claimed, what is unknown, and what needs attention.

What the statuses mean

A shared language for evidence

Every claim, document, and timeline event uses the same four statuses, so a reader learns the system once and applies it everywhere.

Verified

Supported by independent documentation such as a permit, invoice, warranty, or dated record.

Owner-claimed

Stated by an owner or seller, but not yet confirmed by an independent source.

Unknown

No record has been located to confirm or contradict this item.

Contradicted

At least two sources disagree. The conflict should be resolved before relying on this item.
