Property Health appears as a number out of 100 at the top of your passport. People assume it is grading the house. It is closer to grading the file.
A thin record scores low, and should
If your record holds one entry, the score is low. Not because the house is in poor condition, but because almost nothing about it is known.
That reads as harsh until you consider the alternative. A score that flattered a thin record would be telling a buyer, a lender or an insurer that a house is well documented when it is not. The number would be comfortable and useless.
It says why, and what would move it
When the score is low it names the reason and what would improve it. Add the boiler service, attach the electrical certificate, record the roof work.
That is the useful half. A number on its own is a verdict. A number with a next action is a to-do list.
The trend matters more than the number
Once there are at least two readings, the score shows a trend. Whether it is going up is a better signal than where it currently sits, because every house starts with an empty record and the ones worth trusting are the ones being kept.
We do not claim it recomputes daily, because it does not. It updates as the record does.
