Upgraded Estimating Dashboard for Smarter Cost Insights

We just launched a new update to our Estimating Dashboard, designed to empower users with a clearer understanding of project costs and historical spending. This revamped Estimating Dashboard offers a one-stop-shop for visualizing and analyzing your estimates, helping you make smarter financial decisions for future flips.

Key Features:

• Consolidated Estimate View:
• See all estimates from the Repair Estimator tool in a single table, providing a high-level overview of your entire project portfolio.
• Enhanced Cost History Tracking:
• Review your complete spending history, including total project costs, average cost per square foot, and breakdowns across categories like exterior, interior, and MEP systems.
• Construction Strategy Tagging:
• Analyze spending trends based on project complexity. A new "Construction Strategy" data point allows you to categorize projects by renovation level (cosmetic, heavy, or gut rehab) and see how costs differ between these classifications. (Note: This data point is added on the Property Info page under Project Strategy.)
• Export to Excel/Google Sheets:
• Gain further control by exporting your data to a CSV file for custom calculations in Excel or Google Sheets.

Benefits:

• Improved Estimating Accuracy:
• Leverage historical cost data to identify trends and make more informed estimates for future projects.
• Smarter Project Planning:
• Gain insights into how much you typically spend on various project types and property areas, allowing for better budget allocation.
• Streamlined Workflow:
• Easily export data for further analysis in your preferred spreadsheet software.
