HoWA Score

A score for your home and garden. A history that stays with the address.

The HoWA Score gives a view of the home and garden’s care and condition, grounded in the evidence available. Understand what needs attention and what you can do to improve it.

From owner to owner

Service records, certificates, repairs and improvements build an enduring history of the home and garden. The verified property records stay with the address, so the next household can see what has been done and continue its care.

The Score evolves as the property changes. Its history carries on. Personal information and private household life stay separate.

What the HoWA Score looks at, arranged around the dolls house: property information, care, protection, efficiency and readiness, with the app showing a Score of 82.

What the Score considers

01

Home information

How complete and reliable the property record is.

02

Care

Servicing, maintenance and completed work that is supported by evidence.

03

Protection

Relevant policies, certificates and important property evidence.

04

Efficiency

Available information about energy, water and how the home handles disruption.

05

Readiness

Upcoming tasks, warranties, handover information and what may need attention next.

How to read it

01

Score

The current reading, shown out of 100.

02

Confidence

How much reliable information sits behind the reading.

03

Reason

The evidence that helps explain what you are seeing.

04

Next step

Something useful to review, correct or add.

Do something about it

Use that understanding to plan care, investigate a concern or arrange work. New evidence and completed work inform the next reading.

Know what it tells you

The Score concerns the property, never your private household life or personal creditworthiness. Missing information is a gap in evidence, not proof of a fault. It is not a formal valuation, structural survey, safety certificate or personal credit decision, and does not replace a professional inspection.
