## Reviews

### "Best online home cost estimating software" — 5.0/5

> **Tom** | *October 28, 2015*
> 
> It takes a little practice to become proficient at using the software, but once learned, I can prepare a cost estimate for a home in under 4 hours.  I like that you can get within about 5% +/- with somewhat limited information.   The type of information on a Magazine or web page design, along with knowing the level of finishes, will allow you to complete the estimate.  I like that you can share the information with prospective clients from a general level to extremely detailed.  Using the program gives confidence to them in our expertise.   It works well as a "Reality Check" for clients whose expectations are too high.   It prevents wasted design time by then allowing you to design to a budget.

### "This is a unique, professional, and more inclusive estimating program that is locally accurate" — 5.0/5

> **Stewart** | *October 30, 2015*
> 
> Unlike most of the estimating programs out there, Home-Cost has a system based a approach which is reality, we cannot have a particular material without its supporting building materials and installation. Also,  Home-Cost has the ability to be sensitive to local building markets as well as offer a variety of qualities and options.

Home-Cost is a more sophisticated and easier approach to a very complex issue.

### "Excellent Tool....sharp as a chisel" — 5.0/5

> **Jeffrey** | *October 27, 2015*
> 
> I've used this program for many years. It is an excellent tool to help alleviate a clients concerns over the cost of a new home. It gives them a very open book view of the details of where the costs come from and how their decisions affect the bottom line. It allows the client to take a level of control when they need it the most.
