Homes

Your properties — the persistent records projects, rooms, documents, and finances hang off.

What it is — your properties, at /app/homes. A home is the persistent record a property keeps for life: renovation projects come and go, but the home — its rooms, documents, and finances — stays.

How homes relate to everything else

• Every project belongs to a home.
• Rooms belong to the home (not the project), so they persist across projects.
• Finance records and documents can optionally be linked to a home.

Creating a home

Click + Add home and give it a name (required). Address and jurisdiction are optional — jurisdiction helps when local rules matter (permits, taxes).

Editing a home

Edit in place: click the name, address, or jurisdiction on a home’s card, type, and confirm. No separate edit screen.

Deleting a home

Click Delete on the home’s card. Before anything happens, RenovAI checks what the deletion would affect and shows you:

• If any projects still reference the home, deletion is blocked — delete those projects first.
• Otherwise, deleting is permanent and removes everything the home owns: its rooms along with their elements, selections, and materials, plus any home-scoped materials.
• Finance records and documents linked to the home are not deleted — they are kept and simply unlinked from the home.

The confirmation dialog lists these effects with exact counts, so you can see what you’re about to lose before you confirm.
