Quick turnover estimate (start here)
property_turnover_quick_estimateRead-onlyIdempotent
Estimates what it costs to turn over a US rental unit after move-out; the first tool for a turnover estimate. Inputs: a 5-digit ZIP, bedrooms, bathrooms and the issues in plain English (e.g. "stained carpet in both bedrooms"); optional unit type, size, year built. Returns a priced make-ready estimate: repair tasks by trade with low/expected/high costs for the ZIP's labor market, must/should/could priorities, refer-outs to licensed professionals, assumptions, and links to the web tool and downloads. Same engine as property_turnover_scope. Not for: diagnosing hazards, legal advice on deposits, remodel bids, properties outside the US. Deterministic and source-cited: the same input gives the same result.
Input Schema
TableJSON Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| zip | Yes | The user's 5-digit US ZIP code. If it is missing or not exactly 5 digits, ask the user; never guess, pad or correct it. | |
| audit | No | Also return the run record and input/result hashes (an audit trail). Default false. | |
| sq_ft | No | Interior sq ft. | |
| carpet | No | Is there wall-to-wall carpet? | |
| detail | No | summary (default, small) or full (every line). | summary |
| issues | No | What was found in plain English, e.g. ['stained carpet in both bedrooms', 'nail holes everywhere', 'oven is filthy']. Read like pasted notes: an entry may hold several conditions ('carpet stained, nail holes'; one finding each); a room before or after the condition sets the location ('Bedroom 2 carpet torn', 'mold in bathroom'); a written count sets the quantity ('3 blinds broken'); an entry saying there is no work ('no mold', 'leak fixed by tenant') is reported as not billed. | |
| profile | No | minimum (rent-ready basics) | standard | premium (higher finish). | standard |
| bedrooms | Yes | 0 for a studio. | |
| bathrooms | Yes | Half baths count as 0.5. | |
| unit_type | No | Single-family homes and townhomes get house-sized defaults (floor area, locks). | apartment |
| price_tier | No | bulk_contract (portfolio contract prices) | pm_vendor (default: a property manager buying turns from local vendors) | retail_one_off (an owner hiring one contractor). | pm_vendor |
| year_built | No | Drives lead-paint (pre-1978) handling. | |
| client_refs | No | Your own reference ids (e.g. unit_id, job_id). Echoed back, never used. |
