Results

Surfaces disagreements, missing information and risks before buyers commit.
A human-reviewed CoBuy Decision Brief™ within 48 hours of alignment, with financial context and prioritized next steps.

What it is

Buying a home with other people fails on the conversations nobody has. Who pays what. Who lives there. What happens when someone wants out.

CoBuy Wizard has each co-buyer answer the same questions privately, finances included. Then the group sees where it lines up and where it doesn’t, and works each open point to agreement: ownership, costs, decisions, exit.

Once the group is aligned, we review the answers and send a CoBuy Decision Brief™ within 48 hours. It’s a clean, neutral read of the group’s combined finances, readiness, risks and next steps, before money is on the line.

It’s for any group thinking about buying a home together, before they spend money finding out.

Screens

A group page showing two co-buyers, their progress and the group’s definition — The group page. Who’s in, who’s done, and what the group has agreed.

A question about credit score on a phone, with progress shown at the top — One question at a time, on a phone. Answers save as you go.

Customers

“We thought we were on the same page going in, but our Decision Brief showed us where we actually agree, where we still need information, and what can wait versus what needs to be worked out before we buy.”

More proof

A reprise of the Wizard at the core of our original platform, in use by early 2018.
The first sale was an agent referral.
The Decision Brief separates what a group can afford, what could break the arrangement, and whether they’re ready.
The brief only generates once every answer it needs is in. Hard rules keep it accurate and in scope.
49 written acceptance cases cover contradictions, missing data and weak confidence.
Users, groups, invitations, alignment and payment status sync to one operating view.
