The Home Logbook

When I bought my house, I received a set of 17 mismatched keys and a scribbled note about wiggling a gas bottle. The paint tins were unlabeled and no one knew when the gutters were last cleaned.

Now everything is neatly organised in my dashboard. Every appliance, material, warranty and quirk is logged and I have a schedule of regular maintenance appointments.

I work with buyers to assist in understanding mandatory vendor disclosures about a home. Buyers have similar questions about some of these questions and the steps that they might take to do further independent research. It can be overlooked in the rush to secure the sale.

DwellTell prompts home owners to maintain records and identifies them as relevant to regulatory disclosures (or not). When buyers make enquiries, owners can quickly access relevant information to provide responsive service.

I have owned my home for 20 years. As I prepare to move into assisted living, I am thinking about what sorts of things might make sense to prepare to sell.

DwellTell suggested a sunshade above the balcony that faces full sun, and identified a streetscape condition in the planning instrument that might raise objections to that proposal. It also suggests privacy glass along the windows that face my neighbours home. I spoke to each real estate agent that pitched for the sales process about these suggestions and felt prepared for those meetings.

I’ve been renting my flat for six years. The rent roll was sold and the new agent has been difficult. I have been making repairs myself because the agent is unresponsive and then agressive. I keep wondering if the owner even knows this is happening.

With DwellTell, maintenance requests are transparent. My care for the property is visible and I can seen where things are up to. Lease renewals are prompt and I know the property manager is processing these tickets. It might be a tight market, but relationships still count.

My neighbours and I share a gardening service. It has worked really well for years. When new neighbours arrive we have a chat about inviting the new neighbours to the group. We used to pass notes and race to catch each other on the way to work to sort the admin.

With DwellTell, we can share the commitments we make as a group and manage the arrangements with the gardeners smoothly. The gardener likes it better too.

We love our home in our quiet corner of the world. Occasionally we receive letterbox drops suggesting we prepare for fires and floods. We put them on the fridge and don't think much more about it.

DwellTell prompted us to make a preparation plan. We have a list of essentials and a plan for what we will do if one of those hazards comes our way. This year, we're clearing vegetation from the backyard and used the planning tool to help us work through the 10/50 code.

Every renovation job starts with detective work to discover what work has been done before and what insurance will cover. I can scope my quotes and tailor proposals with specific references to the property and the insurance claim requirements.

DwellTell gives me the context I need before I arrive. No more costly surprises and the scope is approved quickly.

As part of our sales preparation process, we work with clients to give the mandatory disclosures. Beyond that, some sellers ask for advice on steps they can take to go the extra mile.

We look for simple tools that can help potential buyers to connect with the property. DwellTell is a point of difference for those sellers who want to show the value of the home.

Last visit home, I felt like a stranger in my parents’ house. There’s a running joke about who remembers how the air conditioner works and we learned about the hefty penalties for setting off the smoke alarm in the corridor of their building after burnt late night toasties.

My parents shared wifi passwords, building admin and other details that we needed to keep things ticking over while we stayed. Now even visitors can operate the essentials without interrupting someone’s holiday.

We ask borrowers to keep us updated with details of repairs, upgrades and insurance coverage. We check it when the loans are made, but it gets overlooked after that.

DwellTell gives us place based intelligence that can flag assurance diligence suggestions. Documentation is verified and maintained over the life of the loan and we can improve our visibility without any special effort.

For us to process claims efficiently, we need records and receipts. Instead we end up accepting declarations describing what those lost details.

DwellTell gives us a consistent record across ownership changes and asset upgrades. We can price policies that are tailored to the inventory.
