Your Personal GPS to Homeownership โ Powered by Real Properties, Real Financing & Real Life Choices.
Future Home Twin is an interactive digital experience that helps people turn the vague dream of owning a home into a clear, navigable, and emotionally meaningful journey.
Most people don't know:
- What can I afford?
- What affects my future equity?
- What life decisions actually matter?
- When will I truly be ready to buy?
- Where should I live โ and what's realistic?
This project transforms these difficult questions into a guided, playful, future-facing journey powered by:
- ๐๏ธ Property Listings API
- ๐ฐ Financing Simulation API
- ๐ Interactive Timeline & Life Sandbox
- ๐ค AI Chat Companion
- โ๏ธ Optional AI Phone Concierge
Owning your own home is one of life's biggest milestones โ but the path to get there is confusing, stressful, and emotionally draining.
Users face:
- โ Uncertainty about equity
- ๐ผ Doubts about income stability
- ๐ฐ Fear that they will "never catch up"
- ๐ Confusing financing rules
- ๐ฎ A lack of visibility into how life decisions impact future affordability
- ๐ A painful market where interest rates, prices, and supply change constantly
- ๐ Information overload
- ๐ง Analysis paralysis
Interhyp's customers, especially 30โ45 year olds and young families, feel stuck in a fog.
Make the journey to homeownership:
โ
Understandable
โ
Motivating
โ
Emotionally supportive
โ
Realistic and data-driven
โ
Playable โ not painful
We combine data, creativity, and code to turn a life-long dream into a tangible plan.
Not later. Now.
Meet the center of the experience โ a personalized, evolving digital version of you that represents:
- ๐ค Who you can become
- ๐ The home you could live in
- ๐ค๏ธ The life decisions that lead you there
Your Future Home Twin uses your inputs + real market data + simulation to show:
โ๏ธ What home you can likely afford โ and when
โ๏ธ How your equity evolves over time
โ๏ธ How life changes (job, city, kids, partner, break, promotion) shift your timeline
โ๏ธ What areas & properties fit your realistic budget
โ๏ธ What steps get you closer fastest
โ๏ธ What you control โ and what you can't
It's Google Maps for your financial future.

- Fast Route (aggressive savings or location shifts)
Each route includes:
- ๐ Predicted purchase year

- ๐๏ธ Predicted property options
- ๐ Future Home Twin mood (yes โ emotional feedback!)
A friendly, supportive assistant that explains:

- "How do interest rates shape your monthly budget?"
- "What can you change to speed things up?"
- "What areas offer better affordability?"

- ๐ Equity curve over years
- ๐ฐ Budget vs. purchase price gap
- ๐บ๏ธ Where they can afford to live (map overlay)
