AI tools visualize home renovations and real-estate upgrades

Astro was used to create three potential home deck remodels, redesigns, or expansions. The visualization can help develop a clear project vision, but current models are not considered reliable enough to approve construction: Blender tests showed misaligned beams and other errors.

Codex was used with Zillow links to generate an interactive website showing homes in their current condition and how they could evolve according to a user’s stylistic preferences. A fully remodeled home was cited as commanding about a 20% premium over a comparable unreformed property, suggesting that buyers could consider purchasing a cheaper home, renovating it, and capturing part of the value themselves.

AI was also used to assess room layouts and bed size. Even when the recommendation merely confirmed that the existing arrangement was adequate, it could increase confidence and help people make decisions faster.
