Homework Ledger is the history of a home: the work done on it, who did it, and what is due next. HOME HISTORIES FROM TOWN RECORDS Look up a home in the cities we cover and see its permitted work, like roofs, heating and cooling, water heaters, solar, pools and additions, with dates, costs and the companies that did the work. Own the home? Claim it and add your own records. CITIES AND NEIGHBORHOODS Browse the cities and neighborhoods we cover on a street map. See the work homes there get most, what it usually costs, and the companies homeowners hire. RECORD THE FULL HISTORY Add repairs, maintenance, improvements, inspections, costs, time, notes, photos, videos, receipts, warranties, permits and documents with guided forms. AI Auto fill can turn a receipt or invoice photo into a draft you review before saving. STAY AHEAD OF MAINTENANCE Track reminders, upcoming work, the age of your home's systems, warranties, spending and time invested, for one home or a whole portfolio. FIND AND VERIFY CONTRACTORS Contractor profiles show the work they have done. Search it by street, and filter by kind of job, year, area and jobs homeowners verified. Homeowners approve the work contractors submit, so verified jobs stay with the right home. KEEP HISTORY WITH THE HOME Transfer or release ownership without losing the history. Share public home reports while private records and files stay protected.
